-
Da Aie Park is a Korean-born artist based in Los Angeles. Emerging from minimalist painting, her practice has expanded to include hanji, traditional Korean paper, and sculptural forms.
-
Her work explores the relationship between liquid pigment and surface, focusing on materiality, bodily gesture, and processes that unfold over time. Working with water-based pigments on hanji and wooden panels, she engages the tension between absorption and resistance, allowing forms to emerge through seepage, accumulation, and chance.
-
In her recent work, Park considers the notion of a “1 cm gap,” a minimal yet persistent interval that informs both her material approach and spatial compositions.
-
Park has presented more than a dozen solo exhibitions and participated in numerous group exhibitions across the United States, Korea, Japan, Thailand, Italy, Germany, and England. She has also curated projects including Diaspora: Arirang (2021), Our River: City Flood Plain (2023), Our River: Flood Plain & Future (2025), and Hanji: The Texture of Tradition and Innovation (2026).
