Minji Ryu recalls the emotions she experienced while observing the landscape in her daily life and investigates the manner in which gathered images are displayed in paintings. As a graduate of the Department of Fine Arts at Seoul National University of Science and Technology, she acknowledged the inevitable gap between the experience of gazing at reality and drawing it and took a moment to recognize the landscape that was shared through abstraction and conceptualization. Her paintings focus on the experience of seeing and reproduce the impression produced by substituting an object for a function consisting of light and darkness as a physical image. In this manner, the artist hopes that paintings will serve as a channel for evoking past experiences in the minds of the audience, so reviving their perspective on current life.
