A solo exhibition by artist Jeon Byung-hee will be held on the 5th floor of Insa Art Plaza (Lefranc) in Insadong, Seoul from July 10 to 23.

In this exhibition, Jeon has developed a technique called "petal touch three-dimensional oil painting technique," in which the artist sculpts petals with paint as if embroidering the emotions felt in her heart, and expresses her wishes for happiness as petals on the tip of her brush.

I work in a way that feels a little unfinished because I want the viewers to fill in the gaps in their minds.

It is a work that is completed by the artist and the viewer by filling it with their imagination and thoughts.

I imagine myself reading a book under a tree, riding a bike, sitting on a chair.

The artist's intentional exhibition "Draw with the heart" is being held.

Artist's note

The pain in my heart that everyone has.
I put my good luck on the tip of my brush in the hope that everyone will find comfort in my work.

I hope that everyone will find comfort in my work and that it will bloom in their hearts. 
"May the flowers in your heart blossom."
