Hong Ji-Young With You 1 (Print), 2021

Edition of 25

Hong Ji-Young’s With You 1 captures an intimate, dreamlike moment between two figures walking hand in hand along a radiant shoreline. The artist uses thick, expressive brushstrokes and a luminous palette of electric blues, pinks, and yellows to create a surreal seascape that glows with emotional warmth. The figures, rendered in iridescent hues that seem to merge with their surroundings, evoke a sense of unity and tenderness, as though they are both part of and embraced by the landscape itself. Through this fusion of color and form, Hong transforms a simple scene of companionship into a poetic reflection on connection, serenity, and the beauty of shared presence.
