“Artists may not be in the business of saving lives, but their creations have the remarkable ability to breathe life into those who experience them.”
Liz is a multidisciplinary artist whose work is an invitation—an experience that transcends sight, weaving the tangible and intangible into a rich sensory tapestry. From painting to sculpture, photography to silversmithing, drawing, and ceramics, she explores the essence of creation, where thought and touch converge. Born in New York City, Liz moved to Seoul, Korea, at the age of seven, later returning to her hometown before eventually settling in Southern California. Her artistic journey has been shaped by global travel, and through immersing herself in diverse cultures while an unrelenting curiosity, a fascination with storytellers, visionaries, and seekers of knowledge, has guided her path. Whether through the rhythm of piano keys or the fluidity of dance, her early years laid the foundation for a lifelong exploration of movement, expression, and narrative.
Her work is an interplay of nature’s quiet intricacies and the depths of human consciousness, infused with psychology, neuroscience, and both Eastern and Western philosophies. But more than compositions on canvas or sculpted forms, her art breathes—it engages, stirs, and provokes. She thrives in the space between chaos and order, unraveling meaning in the tension of opposites, crafting moments that challenge perception and evoke reflection. At the core of her artistic vision is a profound belief in the power of connection. She sees art as a bridge—an offering that dissolves boundaries, fostering a sense of unity and shared experience. Through her creations, she invites viewers into an immersive dialogue, where emotions intertwine and perspectives converge, reminding us that we are all deeply connected. Her work does not exist solely as an individual expression—it is a shared moment, a conversation between artist and viewers, where the invisible threads that bind us are illuminated.
Her synesthetic lens allows her to blur the boundaries between senses, creating immersive works that resonate beyond the visual. Texture, movement, and emotion harmonize, creating spaces where viewers don’t simply observe but feel. In these moments, art transforms into dialogue—a visceral exchange that transcends the barriers between thought, sensation, and human connection. She seamlessly bridges fine and performing arts, infusing each creation with the stories and cultural influences gathered on her journey. Restless in her exploration, fearless in her innovation, she redefines artistic boundaries—always reaching, always evolving.
