{"product_id":"lydia-seo","title":"Lydia Seo","description":"\u003cp\u003eSeo Sook-Yang (Lydia Seo) is a Korean painter known for a distinctive body of work built with 24K pure gold leaf, moving across painting, sculptural objects, and architectural installation. Her signature *Flow of Light* series treats light as the origin of being — an expansion of the soul and a message of blessing directed at life itself. Each piece is built up through a long process: acrylic paint is layered drop by drop, then overlaid with sheets of 24K pure gold leaf, so that the finished surface holds a condensed, luminous energy. The biblical phrase \"Let there be light\" has been a defining inspiration for the series, which she has described as an attempt to express that phrase in its purest and most intense form, using the material world's noblest substance — pure gold — to visualize the light of life and the light of hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe holds an M.F.A. in Painting from the Graduate School of Fine Arts, Hongik University, and has held 18 solo exhibitions (per a 2025 press interview; her own CV states 20) alongside extensive participation in international art fairs, including in Miami, Hong Kong, Singapore, London, and New York. Her solo exhibition *Golden: Flow of Light* was held at Beaux-Arts Gallery Cheongdam from December 2025 to January 2026, following a special exhibition of the same series at Lotte World Tower's ABOUT++ Project Lounge in August–September 2025\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beaux-Arts Gallery Seoul","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52810949591351,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"KRW","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1002\/6054\/4823\/files\/469555304_18475599922056242_110357070897894225_n.jpg?v=1785735957","url":"https:\/\/beauxarts.kr\/products\/lydia-seo","provider":"Beaux-Arts Gallery Seoul","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
