Shaina McCoy works from photographs to paint her family members in thick, expressive brushstrokes. While her source material is deeply personal, McCoy renders her subjects without faces, inviting her viewers to project themselves and their own relatives into her scenes. As she depicts subjects from many stages of life and employs a wide range of skin tones and compositional styles, McCoy thematizes the diversity and complexity of Black families and experience.

Cho Youngnam is a celebrated singer, television personality, and contemporary artist who has built a distinctive visual language that bridges popular culture and fine art. By reinterpreting the traditional Korean card game hwatu through the lens of pop art, he transforms a simple pastime into a cultural symbol and collective memory that transcends generations. His works dissolve the boundaries between tradition and modernity, mass culture and high art, humor and satire—expanding the aesthetic possibilities of contemporary art.

Apichaya Wannakit (b. 2000, Thailand) graduated from the Faculty of Painting, Sculpture and Graphic Arts at Silpakorn University. Her paintings draw on a range of techniques in color and texture to explore the relationship between her identity and her surroundings, where those surroundings extend past physical objects and people to the cultural forms and social reflections that question and shape her sense of self.

Working through the language of painting, she sets out to convey the process of self construction. She understands all things as interconnected across time and space, and sees even imagined imagery as emerging from fragments of diverse realities. Her method gathers experience, memory, truth and narrative into a single visual language, and the forms in her work invite the viewer to consider objects and events of the past, present and future through the lens of interconnected experience.

In 2025 she became the first Thai artist selected for a residency at Palazzo Monti in Brescia, Italy, through Bangkok Kunsthalle’s collaboration with the Fertile program. During the residency she produced the large scale oil painting Legacy: between absence and eternity and a smaller Untitled, both shaped by attentiveness to what is given through human encounter. The larger work places her body twice within one space to hold two perspectives, origin and present, using repetition as a way of looking back across distance, while the smaller piece turns toward a more intimate meditation on separation and self perception.

Born in Schwerte, Germany, in 1952, she studied at the Werkkunstschule in Cologne and became one of the first artists to exhibit at the Monika Sprüth Gallery, well-known for presenting only female artists. She is a professor at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, in Nordrhein-Westfalen. Trockel’s early works include the series Knitted Paintings (1985), created using machine-knitted fabrics stretched over canvases. In these woolen canvases, Trockel depicts generic computer-generated imagery and, in some cases, particular historical iconography such as a Soviet worker with a hammer and sickle.
The artist continues to work in a wide variety of media and genres, including the creation of living sculptures from garden elements as in Less Sauvages than Others (2006). Rosemarie Trockel has received numerous awards, including the Wolf Prize in Arts in 2011 and the Roswitha Haftmann Prize in 2014. She has exhibited extensively worldwide: in 2012 her work was presented at the New Museum in New York in a retrospective organized by the Reina Sofia in Madrid, that traveled to the Serpentine Gallery in London the following year. In 2018, the Moderna Museet in Stockholm mounted a solo show of her work. Trockel is the first woman to represent Germany in its national pavilion at the 1999 Venice Biennale, and continues to exhibit internationally.

KANG Cheolgyu (b.1990) depicts narratives of a fictional world with a realistic touch. The mysterious otherworld within his canvas is a landscape that metaphorically projects his own reality. People and animals in exotic nature, symbolic events, each are closely related to his emotions and psyche. The black sphere that appears in Enemy (2023) represents a physical manifestation of complex emotions that are difficult to handle, such as anxiety, compulsion, expectation, delusion, disappointment, and depression. The artist's reality is sometimes perceived as overwhelmingly helpless, like the Big One (2023), which remains unflinching even when struck by a decisive spear. In Hunting Diary (2023), a figure who prepares raw meat from the wild for survival is depicted as an incompletely segmented body or self-divided into several people.




KANG Cheolgyu was born in Gimcheon, Korea in 1990. He received his BFA in Painting and MFA in Fine Arts from Hannam University. He has held solo exhibitions at Chapter II (Seoul, Korea, 2022), M2 Project-room at Lee Ungno Museum (Daejeon, Korea, 2021), Artist Residency TEMI (Daejeon, Korea, 2020), Gallery Gabi (Seoul, Korea, 2017) and more. He has participated in group exhibitions at ARARIO GALLERY SEOUL (Seoul, Korea, 2024), Doonamjae Art Center (Seoul, Korea, 2023), Gallery Baton (Seoul, Korea, 2022), Daejeon Museum of Art (Daejeon, Korea, 2021; 2018), Galley Gabi (Seoul, Korea, 2017), Gallery Gwang, Sejong Center (Seoul, Korea, 2015) and more. He was the artist-in-residence at the Artist Residency TEMI (Daejeon, Korea) in 2020 and the Studio White Block (Cheonan, Korea) in 2023. His works are collected by institutions such as Seoul Museum of Art, National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art’s Art Bank, Daejeon Museum of Art.

MHAK was born in Aizu Wakamatsu city, Fukushima. Highly inspired by designer furniture and interiors, he has mainly been working on mural painting inside the buildings. He considers painting as a part of interior design and the theme for his artwork is to coexist with the living environment. He had worked on many hotels and private houses utilizing his distinctive style of curve lines and repetitions. Believing his paintings have to be recognized as an atmosphere rather than an object, MHAK sticks to abstractness.


Sung Tae Kim specializes in the process of transforming a flat surface into a three-dimensional object. The works are a plane with three-dimensional potential and a processed surface, depicting space through installation. Interestingly, behind this complex process, we find the artist replacing the segmental method of measurement with psychology.

Daniel Wheedong Kim uses the metaphor of 'GHOST' to describe contemporary images that are endlessly replicated across mediums. Embracing 'Hyper-Ghostism,' he creates paintings reflecting on the role of art in an era where reality and existence are increasingly blurred.

Painting is a gauge of gravity, according to Jeongyoon Park. The artist, who is taking a master's degree in the Department of Fine Arts at Seoul National University of Science and Technology, has been focusing on the concept of gravity. Instead of defying or destroying gravity, she investigates what is possible with gravity. The artist actively utilizes various materials and methods in her works, experimenting with the horizontal possibility of the painting by incorporating fragmentary or complex elements into her works to show various art universes. 

Leeje (b.1979) chooses urban life and surrounding people as subjects for her paintings, portraying what she sees: sceneries of city landscapes in middle of development, self-portraits with her clothes pulled up to the shoulders at the center of desolate construction site and streetlights brightening the darkness of way home from work or gathered people around dinner tables. Like such, the artist has been focusing on disappearing sceneries or unnoticed individuals who are living their lives somewhere. From this aspect, Leeje could be categorized as Post-Minjung artist. She, however, prioritized the attitude of aesthetic while seeking her subjects through affectionate gaze and conveying them in her works, rather than giving a harsh critique. Thus, Leeje tries to build a relationship with the world by exploring the possibility of paintings that can depict memories, emotions, solidarity, and friendship.
Leeje has held solo exhibitions at A-Lounge, Seoul (2023), Space Sansumunwha, Seoul (2021), Chosun Gallery, Seoul (2017, 2014), OCI Museum of Art, Seoul (2010), and Alternative Space Loop, Seoul (2006).

Woojoo’s paintings unfold into serene worlds filled with a sense of healing and tranquility. The recurring image of the “door” serves as a passage between reality and a realm beyond it, inviting viewers to imagine an experience that transcends familiar boundaries of time and space. Landscapes composed of forests, skies, clouds, and light evoke a sense of anticipation and wonder toward an unseen yet distinctly present world beyond reality. Through these dreamlike scenes, Woojoo creates a quiet refuge where viewers can momentarily step away from everyday life, encounter their inner emotions, and simply pause.

Antony Micallef (b. 1975, Swindon, UK) is a British contemporary artist working in London. He was notably taught by the austere landscape painter John Virtue, who was taught by the postwar painter Frank Auerbach.
Described as a modern expressionist, Micallef roots his work in social commentary and self-examination. Known for his visually charged figure paintings, he uses oil paint in a groundbreaking way; he is able to literally sculpt and form the paint to reconfigure the parameters of what an oil
painting can be. Combined with his impasto and layering techniques, the oil paint is pushed to its extreme and blurs our reading of painting and sculpture.
Micallef’s recent paintings are created using these unique methods where the oil is changed into a material to realise a new form of physical embodiment.

Jaeyeon Leem explores a strange sense of novelty from unfamiliar sensations. The artist earned her undergraduate degree in painting from Ewha Womans University and is currently pursuing her master’s in the same institution. In her painting, peculiar emotions entangle with the world and result in its own fantasies. As our familiar world feels inadequate and incomplete, this uncharted mystic realm exerts a greater force upon us. The mythic motifs that appear in her work serve to amplify these sensations of strangeness, mystery, and fear that we have not encountered previously in our world. The unseen and unexperienced world feels like the underbelly of the real world, yet it is a space that makes us conscious of the depths within the human mind. 
Her art seeks to reconcile the coexistence of dualities such as reality and unreality, desire and repression, good and evil, beauty and ugliness, and within these tensions, she expresses the will and hope of life, aspirations, yearnings and fears. Her abstract gestures, intertwined with hidden forms, continually weave a narrative between the worlds she has experienced and those she has never encountered, revealing the artist's connection to an alien and mystical realm. The artist’s work is akin to myths - mysterious yet not fantasy or fiction bur rather a world that closely resembles the non-fictional, one she has sensed and felt.

Born in 1992, Jieun Choi majored Korean painting at Dongguk University and continued her studies at the National University of Arts in Karlsruhe. Currently, she is pursuing her artistic career in Germany. At the heart of her artistic expression is the creation of abstract images, skillfully capturing the transient and ephemeral qualities of the moment.

Choi seamlessly integrates the soft curves of her subjects with abstract backgrounds, crafting a unique visual narrative that places her characters within a distinctive and captivating realm. Through this, she delves into the intricate and nuanced aspects inherent in the linguistic and subtle nature of the human body. The artist pursues mysterious, intuitive, and sensorial expressions, skillfully capturing the inner narratives and psychological realms of her characters through the intricacies of their gaze and tension.

The artist's creative process navigates the delicate balance between abstraction and concreteness, cycling through phases of creation and destruction. She sculpts her narratives with unexpected forms and situations, elevating the tension and mystery of the characters through moments of anticipation and unwavering pursuit.

Choi endeavors to immerse viewers in an experience of intuition and empathy by infusing her characters' gestures and gazes with profound meaning. In doing so, she cherishes the exploration of boundaries between the unconscious and conscious realms, forging innovative narrative structures. Through this distinctive approach, Choi actively seeks profound engagement with the audience, persistently delving into the dynamic exchange of meaning and emotions within the realm of art.

Yerim Choi's paintings focus on the present. The 'moment' is one that has not been found or is easily neglected. The artist has the desire to capture and convey these moments to the public. She majored in the Department of Fine Arts at Seoul National University of Science and Technology, and she continues to capture and recall pleasant recollections. Warm moments pause the movement of busy individuals, and the artist uses this moment to communicate with the audience and transmit warmth. Warm moments give confidence to confront the next difficulty, allowing for the next stage of recovery in daily life. The artist believes that the world as seen through her eyes will be reinterpreted and conveyed with a new tenderness.  

Lucas Dupuy, born in 1992 in London, has established a unique artistic approach that explores the synthesis of language and form, influenced heavily by the robust and impactful designs of 20th-century Brutalist architecture.

Fanko dreams of communicating with the world through creative activities based on her daily life. Life goes by and many things happen. Through paintings, she wants to remember the ordinary emotions that we miss or almost forget as time passes by. She said, “The character in the painting is myself, the artist, and at the same time symbolize the people around me. Sometimes I feel like I'm talking to them, and sometimes I feel like I'm listening to their story. I am fascinated by the shift of identity as this.”
The main character in the painting sometimes is an adult and sometimes a child. This emotion is what she feels about herself, and it is constantly being switched and overturned in her mind. The transition of a moment is the essence of her existence and identity. She is growing as a human being and an artist by depicting the ordinary emotions felt in everyday situations that combine self and others, the complex and the simple, the realistic and the imaginary. The story is told in a comfortable and natural way through the familiar style of the main character in the painting. Recently, she has been expanding her medium to include acrylic paint, oil pastel, pencil, photography, animation, and ceramics.
