Hyewon LEE
LEE Hyewon obtained a Bachelor's degree in Korean painting from Kyung Hee University in Seoul in 2008. She then specialized in jewelry by taking the Jewelry Creator Course at Hiko Mizuno Jewelry College in Tokyo, where she earned her Advanced Jewelry Course diploma in 2012. She began her artistic career in 2007 with her first group exhibition, "Dorothy’s Red Shoes," at the Insa Art Center in Seoul. Since then, she has participated in several exhibitions dedicated to jewelry in Japan and has worked in related fields. Based in Paris since 2017, she continues to actively engage in exhibitions while pursuing her artistic endeavors. As a member of AJAC (Association of Young Korean Artists), she collaborates with other Korean artists to promote Korean art and culture on the international stage in France.
The surface thickness of the paper is 0.138 mm. No matter the intensity of an emotion—whether light or deep—it is expressed by layering on this 0.138 mm. For the artist, the paper is both a passage where various images come to life and a door that allows one to enter and exit another world. It is paradoxical that one can evoke emotions of varying weight in a universe made of such thin walls, a reflection that opens up many perspectives. LEE Hyewon's work explores a multitude of subjects, emphasizing the fundamental connection between nature, emotions, and materials.
