Biography

I am Hyunsook Son, an artist inspired by clouds. I have been depicting clouds for over 30 years.
I have developed my clouds by combining influences from the East and the West, and from culture and art.

Clouds are the central theme of my artistic exploration.

Clouds are like living creatures, perpetually moving and changing.
Weighty despite their formless nature, complete yet intangible, colorful and transparent, the ever-changing clouds reflect the evolution of my life and art.
I have held several exhibitions centered on clouds. “Fossili di Nuvola / Cloud Fossils”,
“Il nuvole di Hyunsook / Hyunsook’s Clouds,”
“Nuvole, o Frammenti di memoria / Clouds, or Fragments of memory”, “Schizzo di nuvole / Sketch of clouds”
