Jinhee, where are you from and where do you live now?
I was born and raised in Seoul, South Korea. I spent 5 years of my childhood in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and have studied and worked in Tokyo, Japan for 10 years. Since moving to the U.S. in 2011, I am currently based in New York, US.
How would you describe your artistic style?
Actually I have been struggling to define my artistic style, but I'm trying to focus on Narrative Contemporary/ Abstract inspired by Mono-Ha (もの派).
What's on top of your bucket list (as an artist or just as a person)?
Running Art Schools and building scholarship foundations to support art students.
Vector or watercolor?
Watercolor.
New York or remote mountain hut?
It is hard to choose either. I love both but, if anything, New York.
Becks or Merlot?
Merlot.
And a little Proust: What is your idea of perfect happiness?
Throw away greed. Let go of megalomania.
Which living person do you most admire?
I admire every living creature.
What do you consider the most overrated virtue?
Human-made virtue per se.
What or who is the greatest love of your life?
I love learning, creating and reflecting.
If you were to die and come back as a person or a thing, what would it be?
A star or the air.
The world needs more...

I’ve changed my mind about…
the absolute value of the human.
What most people don't understand is that…
In my humble opinion, I am not eligible to finish this sentence. Having said that, if I have to complete the sentence, I would say: What most people don't understand is that they have never understood.
