Min ha Park, one of the selected contemporary artists for the Korean Artists Today initiative, began her art journey as a form of teenage rebellion against classical music. After studying violin and music composition in Seoul, she eventually moved to New York, where she explored various forms of art. Inspired by the natural landscapes of her past, especially the seasonal changes in her hometown, she shifted her primary focus to painting, with a deep connection to the memories and emotions tied to these environments.
"I realised I didn't want to read or interpret someone else's score anymore - or wait for someone else to interpret mine. I wanted to create entirely on my own."
"When I moved to New York, I realised how much I missed that - watching the seasons change so vividly. I think that sense of longing, or noticing time through landscape, still stays with me."
