Mountainous Mothers is a solo presentation of paintings by Haein Jum. The exhibition is on view from 30 September – 3 May.
Haein Jum is a fine artist from South Korea. She has a multidisciplinary practice that ranges from animation to music. She grew up on a mountain overlooking the
city of Seoul. As well as being a fine artist, She is also a martial artist with a black belt (4 dan) in Taekwondo. As a singer-songwriter, She goes by the alias Bitterfly and She has released songs on all streaming platforms. Her music and artworks are intrinsically linked through their shared imagery, language, and themes. The human condition is explored through sincere storytelling that appears otherworldly but is rooted in reality. Her first experience of art making was
drawing toilets on the back of old calendars when she was 3 years old. When she was 18, she moved to Singapore to study fine art drawing at Lasalle College of Arts and when she was 21, she decided to study in London where so many galleries and artists she admires reside.
