Woo Hannah

Woo Hannah's work imagines an existence that transcends the notion of a finite and fixed body. Based on this, she depicts a scenario where all beings are equal to one another in a horizontal relationship, breaking away from the existing dichotomy which divides humans and non-humans. She presents a situation in which opposite and polarized beings, such as the living and the non-living, the protecting and the protected, the old and the young, the painful and the joyful, converge and complement each other in works that do not limit the boundaries of genres based on fabric as the main material.

Woo Hannah received both BFA and MFA from the Korea National University of Arts' department of Visual Art, and has held solo exhibitions at Frieze No.9 Cork Street (London, 2023), G Gallery (2023), and SongEun Art Cube (2020). Her recent group exhibitions include those at Buk-Seoul Museum of Art (2022), SongEun Art Center (2022), Buk-Seoul Museum of Art (2019), Arko Museum of Art (2019), Ilmin Museum of Art (2019), National Asian Cultural Center (2017), and many others. She received the Frieze Artist Award in 2023 and was a recipient of the Seoul Arts Council Fund in 2018 and 2019.
