Hryanskim (김성문) is a Korean-American artist born in Syracuse, New York. Most of his life was split between the United States and South Korea. He graduated from the School of Visual Arts in 2017 with a BFA in Illustration. He currently works as a fine artist, illustrator, and educator incorporating both traditional and digital mediums. His work personifies animals and plants through a surrealist lens, where the figures present in each image work as symbols for something existential. The elements present in each image are prompts for the viewer, where symbols, idioms, and word play are used to decipher the meaning of each painting.
