Artist Profile

Minhwa Artist
Korean Folk Painting
민화작가
Born 1977, Seoul, Korea.
Ji Minsun, a South Korea-born artist, studied Visual Design at college.
She turned a professional Minhwa artist in her late 20s. She currently teaches the painting at an extension program, Kaywon Art College in South Korea. it is not a co-incidence that the artist has swiftly adapted to a traditional style of Minhwa and altered it in her own due to her educational background.
A majority of Minhwa artists in Korea still adhere to the traditional motifs and subjects that date back to the 16th – 17th centuries. But, Ji Minsun tries to feature motifs and subjects that are universal, thus more appealing to people worldwide.
