“Soru’s work feels gentle, quiet and thoughtful. We are especially drawn to the transcendental Silent II. Even with the lightest touches Soru Lee achieves a feeling of warmth and texture. We seek to bring these qualities to our own work so we admire it when we find it in others.”

“Based in Seoul, South Korea, Soru Lee is an artist who also illustrates picture books. Her images are intended to be intuitive and focus on our relationship with nature, many of which are inspired by her own personal experiences. By spending time walking, Soru finds time to reflect on who she is and later translates these moments of self-reflection onto the canvas – it’s no surprise much of her work is full of hope and comfort.”
