"Constructing the serene face of nature through layers of ink, she transforms familiar landscapes into a sanctuary for contemplation."
About the Artwork
The Lakeside Forest I by Hanjeong Lee
"A silent dialogue between the forest and the water." This majestic panoramic landscape captures a dense forest standing along the water's edge. The reflections in the calm lake create a perfect symmetry, doubling the depth of the greenery. Lee’s intricate ink layering builds a forest that feels both heavy with life and incredibly still. The contrast between the solid, vertical trees and their fluid reflection invites the viewer to lose themselves in the rhythm of nature.

Why We Love This Collection
🌲 Reflective Calm
The reflection of the trees on the water adds a layer of depth and contemplation to the scene. This "double forest" effect creates a profound sense of stillness, making it an ideal visual retreat for a living room or meditation space.
📏 Wide Perspective
With an aspect ratio of over 1:2, this artwork provides a sweeping, cinematic view of nature. Hanging this piece above a long sofa, king-sized bed, or in a wide hallway creates a sense of expansion, making the room feel larger and more open.
🌿 Nature's Embrace
The dense, repetitive vertical lines of the trees create a rhythmic pattern that feels grounding and protective. It brings the essence of "Forest Bathing" indoors, offering a break from the chaos of urban life.
🏆 Proven Value
Hanjeong Lee is a distinguished artist whose works are collected by major institutions including the MMCA Art Bank (National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art), Seoul City Hall, and major corporations like SK and E-Land Foundation.
