About this artwork

In this piece, I embraced the serene quietude of nature’s embrace, using delicate watercolor washes and textured collage to evoke a mystical winter landscape. The solitary tree stands resilient, symbolizing hope and calm amidst the vast, almost dreamlike surroundings. This artwork brings a peaceful yet profound energy, inviting viewers to pause and feel the gentle whisper of nature’s quiet strength in their space.

Lee Yong-wook: Carving the Breath of Nature into Hanji

Lee Yong-wook is a contemporary artist who reinterprets Hanji (traditional Korean paper) to capture the raw vitality of nature. His work is a meditative journey, translating the energy of forests encountered during his daily cycling into physical layers of paper.

The hallmark of his artistry is 'Incision'—delicately carving hand-dyed Hanji with a blade. By layering paper and revealing hidden textures, he creates a profound contrast between material softness and sharp, rhythmic marks, imbuing the surface with sculptural depth.

Since 2019, Lee has collaborated with Gallery M at major fairs in Hong Kong and Busan. Recently, his reach has expanded via Singulart, where his work resonates with collectors across Europe. His signature series offers a sanctuary of tranquility, sharing a universal message of harmony and the enduring power of life.
