Suyon Huh
Details
Description
The artwork features a visually striking abstract composition dominated by a central dark stain against a swirling background of soft blues, grays, and whites. The overall impression is one of fragmentation and disarray, with the central form appearing to have shattered or exploded outwards. The painting's technique employs a mix of gestural brushstrokes and splattering, creating a dynamic, energetic surface. The work seems to explore themes of destruction, chaos, and the fragility of the material world, reflecting the artist's unique perspective on the contemporary human experience. ...

Suyon Huh
B.1993, South KoreanSuyon Huh (b.1993, Seoul, Korea) is an artist who currently lives and works in Seoul, Korea. Her work begins by closely examining the many symbolic relationships between certain objects. Her use of iconographic materials with universal meanings has the viewer question and reach beyond what is presented as the norm. Well-known images such as teddy bears, angels, hearts, crosses, and stars are presented not in the way that is familiar to us; instead filtered through other cultures that have assigned them other contradictory meanings, or at times overthrown the meaning altogether. Stories of people's conflicting perceptions of the same subject matter—such as anecdotes of party-goers mishearing the sound of gunshots as firecrackers and dancing to them—become important allegories when using this symbolism. Suyon majored in Korean Painting at Ewha Woman’s University.
