Sangah Han

Seoul-based artist, Sang A Han was born in seoul in 1987 and received her BA and MFA in Oriental Painting from Hongik University. With a background in traditional Korean painting, she creates performative paintings and sculptures with meok and brush, thread and cotton fabric. Han ’ s work begins from the memory of everyday experiences and the emotions they engender . In the course of various life changes as an artist and woman , and also simply as an individual , she sometimes encounters a complex and nuanced emotion irreducible to a single word . Rather than sort this emotive memory into a logical , well- organized narrative , she draws out its fragmentary and contradictory aspects in a figurative and symbolic visual language .
