ABOUT ARTIST

Jinah Sohn, an acclaimed artist who dedicated nearly two decades to exploring the motif of the chair, has boldly redefined her artistic identity with her shift to “lines and patterns.” Moving away from her previous label as a “chair artist,” Sohn now focuses on the primal, instinctive act of drawing and utilizes painting as a meticulous and labor-intensive tool of expression.

Her new body of work is dominated by essential figurative elements such as dots, lines, and planes. Yet, by blending these elements with motifs from nature, Sohn creates sophisticated and vibrant pieces that reimagine landscapes into lush, natural scenes imbued with a deep urban sentiment.

Sohn’s work delves into the fundamental characteristics of painting, examining them from multiple perspectives to craft a uniqueness rooted in her personal tastes and sensations. The worlds she constructs—reimagined and uniquely hers—demonstrate her evolving artistic vision while establishing a new signature style. This transformation into a realm created entirely by her own vision represents yet another distinct brand of artistry unique to Jinah Sohn.
