Seung-hye Shin’s work explores the unfamiliar energy and beauty that arise from the interplay of multiple emotions and elements. At the heart of her practice lies an ongoing investigation into human relationships—those intricate, paradoxical forces we both seek out and strive to escape. For Shin, relationships are not fixed states but dynamic tensions, marked by attraction, resistance, and transformation.

She views the world as a vast web—one in which we are all entangled, whether comfortably nestled within its threads or struggling to break free. These webs mirror the fragile patterns of connection in our lives: sometimes carefully maintained, sometimes swept away in an instant. Through her art, Shin embraces this cycle of formation and loss, offering a visual meditation on the delicate, ever-shifting structures that define our existence.
