France based, Korean born artist Min Jung-Yeon has recently come up with a series of India ink paintings meditating on those rare moments of quiet stillness. Her body of work emerged during the artist’s move from the French capitol to the countryside. The nostalgic setting reminded her of her childhood and youth spent in Korea. Jung-Yeon’s work communicates less through grandiose vistas and more through a subtle placement of suggestive elements. Her geological formations are stylized and textured, with pine trees showing up as dreamlike motifs that invite the audience to imagine an undisturbed, uninhabited paradise. The artist will be showing with Galerie Maria Lund for the upcoming Young International Artists Art Fair, taling place in Paris October 23 through 26.
