Chung Suejin's work looks like a figurative painting composed of vivid colours and details, but if you look closely, many unrelated images are constructed in a non-narrative manner. Formative elements such as dots, lines, faces, shapes, and colours create multi-layered abstract paintings.

Chung Suejin graduated from the Department of Painting at Hongik University (1992) and obtained a master's degree from the School of Art Institute of Chicago (1995). She is currently working under an exclusive contract with the LEE EUGEAN Gallery.
