So Won Lee

So Won Lee's work visualises the expansion of invisible feelings through charcoal on paper. A pine tree is depicted realistically from below, while its branches and leaves transform into abstract forms that symbolise emotions spreading like living organisms. Flowing lines suggest calmness, while fragmented marks convey tension and anxiety. Small pieces of paper extending from the canvas emphasise the ongoing growth of emotions beyond fixed boundaries. By using wood-based materials — charcoal, paper, and frame — Lee highlights the organic relationship between emotions and nature, inviting viewers to experience emotions as evolving, living entities.
