| Min-woo Bang | |

Born in 1971 in Seoul, Korea. |
| About the Artist | |
Min Woo Bang works with thinly applied layers of acrylic, slowly building the surface to 'materialise' a seductive, surrealist landscape. Combining his traditional elements of fine calligraphic lineal outlines from Korea with early European classical landscape painting, Bang explores the emotional psychological scapes of the mind. |

| My landscape paintings are purely based on my own memories of mountains, trees, and clouds.
I am interested in creating not only the sublime of nature but also psychological emotions through landscape painting.
The psychological inner landscapes are reminiscent of South Korean traditions in landscape painting combined with a dream-environment.
The landscapes observe my own unconscious space in both Western approach to painting and the traditional style of the East, specifically Korea.
