“Once upon a time, in the Estelle’s TaleVerse…”

A Timeless World of Stories, Estelle’s TaleVerse…

I am Estelle SO, a visual artist inspired by traditional Korean paintings such as Minhwa and Chaekgado.

By combining traditional painting techniques and digital art, I create the TaleVerse, where I reinterpret stories like fairy tales and myths through a modern perspective. My goal is to create new stories and express them visually while preserving the depth of traditions and integrating modern sensibilities and technologies.

In my series entitled “TaleVerse,” I develop a dynamic and timeless narrative by harmonizing the stories contained in books with the format of chaekgado. The protagonists constantly write new stories within my works, offering a true visual feast.

“”Il était une fois, dans le TaleVerse(l’univers narratif) d’Estelle…”

옛날 옛적에, 에스텔의 이야기세계에서”

Je suis Estelle SO, e suis Estelle SO, une artiste plasticienne inspirée par les peintures coréennes traditionnelles, telles que le Minhwa et le Chaekgado.

En les combinant combinant des techniques de peinture traditionnelles et de l’art numérique, je crée le TaleVerse, où je réinterprète des histoires comme des contes de fées et des mythes à travers une perspective moderne. Mon objectif est de créer de nouvelles histoires et de les exprimer visuellement en préservant la profondeur des traditions tout en intégrant une sensibilité et des technologies modernes.

Dans ma série intitulée “TaleVerse”, je développe une narration dynamique et intemporelle en harmonisant les histoires contenues dans les livres et le format des chaekgado. Les protagonistes ne cessent d’écrire de nouvelles histoires au sein de mes œuvres, offrant ainsi un véritable festin visuel.

“Once upon a time, in the Estelle’s TaleVerse…”

옛날 옛적에, 에스텔의 이야기세계에서”

시간을 초월한 이야기세계, 에스텔의 TaleVerse…

저는 전통 한국 민화와 책가도에서 영감을 받아, 동화와 신화 같은 이야기를 현대적 관점에서 재해석하는 시각 예술가, 에스텔 Estelle SO입니다. 전통 회화 기법과 미디어 아트를 결합하여 새로운 시각에서 이야기를 창작하고 시각적으로 표현하며, 전통의 깊이를 유지하면서도 현대적 감각과 기술을 접목하고자 합니다.

”TaleVerse’라는 주제의 작업에서는 책 속 이야기와 책가도 형식의 조화를 통해 시공을 초월하는 생동감 넘치는 서사를 확장해 나갑니다. 주인공들은 작품 속에서 끊임없이 새로운 이야기를 써내려가며 시각적인 향연을 펼칩니다.

저는 전통과 현대, 동양과 서양의 예술적 영감을 조화롭게 융합하여, 시대를 초월한 이야기를 통해 관객에게 따뜻한 위로와 희망을 전달하고, 한국 전통 미술의 아름다움과 문화적 다양성을 널리 알리고자 합니다. 앞으로도 꾸준한 작업과 다양한 실험 및 도전을 통해, 시간을 초월한 ‘이야기세계, TaleVerse’를 더욱 풍성하게 만들어 나가고자 합니다.
