Eun Sook JEON (b.1980, S. Korea) lives and works in Seoul. She completed her M.F.A.(2006), B.F.A.(2003) in Sungkyunkwan University. Her main solo exhibitions include ≪Fragments of Sensation≫(Space xx, Seoul, 2024), ≪Slow Move≫(JIDAM gallery, Seoul, 2024), ≪Pacho≫(accompany, Busan, 2023), ≪Pipetting≫(Pyo gallery, online show). Eun Sook JEON, an artist reminiscent of a TikToker in the art world, exudes an energy that bridges an anxious era with positivity. Her work blurs the line between realism that feels abstract, abstraction that feels realistic an improvisation that transcends boundaries, akin to an anthology of short stories where each scene carries its own distinct narrative. The artist’s character, which dismantles preconceptions, is evident in every aspect of her paintings. She finds beauty even in the flowers blooming in the garden of a redevelopment apartment complex, revealing empathy for soon-to-disappear places and discovering urban gardens in their natural state, thriving only when untouched by human influence. …The keen wiht evident in her work shines particularly as it embodies the stark contrast between life’s expectations and their actual outcomes. Her paintings resemble a collection of life’s ironies compiled as short stories, not for the sake of a polished narrative but to express a genuinely human language through color. _ by Ahn Hyun-jung (Art critic and PhD in Art Philosophy)
