Salisbury-based artist and poet Jinsoon Oh was born in Seoul, South Korea and came to the United States in 2016. She had three solo exhibitions in Korea and five solo exhibitions in the US, including at the Salisbury University Downtown Gallery. She has actively participated in regional, national, and international group exhibitions since she resided in the United States. Throughout her life, Oh has always been fascinated by images of the natural environment and being around them. Her evolution into poetic narratives allowed her to discover a newer language in painting and ceramics. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in painting in Seoul. She has been expanding her studio practices in the ceramics and sculpture programs at Salisbury University in Salisbury, Maryland, since she arrived in the US. She has exhibited in many art venues, including several art fairs. Oh has also trained as an art teacher, specializing in secondary and high school art education. Her recent series of works, the Soundless Poem, centers around erasing the symbolic images from the painting surface and filling it with conceptual yet subtle colors through overlapping repetitive marks. She wants to convey more intimate, sublime and intuitive narratives by reconstructing images. She lives and works in Salisbury, Maryland.
