Visual Arts

Song Hyeong–Noh‘s paintings are astonishingly attractive with almost three-dimensional visual impacts. They are about his dreams, his family or simply the up-graded versions of his childhood wall scribbles.

This Korean born artist started showing professionally shortly after receiving his master degree in fine art from Hong-Ik University in 2003. His paintings have been shown in art fairs in Korea, Singapore, the USA, Australia and Hong Kong.

He says that his paintings are not to show wits and wisdom but to trace stories about his dreams, his family and to bear witness to his dreams coming true.

Song has concealed meanings for all the imageries on his canvases. “All animals in my paintings demonstrate strong will and determination. This is similar to the aspirations that I have, ” he states.

“Man-made stonewalls symbolize my present situation, the actual reality as well as one certain stage of my daily life. Animals and toy animals symbolize myself. The background pictures that I depict taped on the backdrops are my dreams or circumstances that I wish would become realities one day.”
