Daein Lee About
b. 2000, lives and works in Seoul.
His practice drifts between drawing, airbrush, and image fragments.
There’s a recurring figure, but it doesn’t ask for attention—it just stays, like a feeling you didn’t mean to hold on to.

The works imagine a place where emotions exist as physical matter: floatable, interruptible, lost and re-found.
There’s no narrative to follow, only moods that linger.
Somewhere between clouds, memory glitches,
and the static noise between “I feel” and “I forgot.”

He doesn't paint answers. He leaves residue.
