Noh Hye-young

fluffy forest-your playground, 2024, oil on canvas, 130.0 x130.0 cm

Noh Hye-young is focuses on expressing the space of ‘forest’ step by step through a single color, reinterpreting memories and inspirations of experiences and capturing them on canvas. In her work, ‘FOREST’ is not just a natural space, but it is harmoniously composed with images from the artist’s mind, and the tiny dots that make up the forest are traces of the artist’s daily life. Busy modern people are used to the familiarity of urban civilization and don’t have much time to explore nature. Therefore, the artist’s work, which captures the four seasons of the forest landscape in four representative colors, gives the viewer a sense of comfort and healing. This is because the artist’s experience of soothing her mind in the forest when she was tired and exhausted as a child, and regaining her joyful and relaxed state of mind, is reflected in her canvases, conveying a sense of psychological stability to the viewer. “I hope that my work will give viewers a time to find comfort and healing in their own hearts,” the artist said in the exhibition.
