About Haejin Yoo

 
 
  • Biography

    As a self-taught acrylic artist, I find raw canvas reflective of the foundations we must lay in life. Using untouched natural surfaces challenges me and aligns with my personal philosophy. 

    I strive for viewers to understand the symbolic meaning behind the plants, animals, and flowers I incorporate into my work. As I apply colours and details, I become consumed by the process, allowing the painting to take hold of me. I finish each piece by stitching my name with hand-dyed red thread, symbolizing strength and connection. 

    My art serves as a personal journal exploring the complex and often opposing emotions we experience. I hope viewers connect with the emotions expressed in my work and understand that these feelings are not one-dimensional.
