People 1986

Se-Ok Suh's 1986 abstract work *People* is an example of the artist's abstract expressionism. The piece features bold black lines that are evocative of figures, creating a rhythmic pattern against a light background. While the artist is known for a more dynamic approach to abstract painting, this piece exhibits a calmer, rhythmic sensibility, showcasing the artist's evolving artistic vision. The work appears to use ink, which is a medium that is known for its ability to create gestural and expressive lines. The viewer is left to interpret the meaning of the piece, which could be about the human condition, the interconnectedness of people, or the passage of time.
