Hello, I'm Irina S.

My name is Irina Shin-Geller. I am a Korean Russian American artist based in North Carolina. I like to experiment with different techniques and media to create images that convey unusual textures​,​ patterns​,​ shapes​,​ and shadows. Recently my preferred material to work with is hanji - a handmade mulberry paper from Korea. Hanji has been known in Korea for many centuries and is probably one of the oldest artistic mediums used by my ancestors. As for my works’ subject matter​,​ they are mostly abstracts. Sometimes viewers see a landscape​,​ a human figure​,​ or a flower. I let the audience interpret my works for themselves and become a part of the interactive process.
