Min Woo Nam

Min Woo Nam (b. 1994, South Korea) is a Korean artist based in London. He holds a Master’s degree in Painting from the Royal College of Art and a degree from the London School of Economics. His formative experience serving with the United Nations peacekeeping force in South Sudan deeply informs his ongoing enquiry into consciousness, perception, and moments of meaningful coincidence that shape lived experience and selfhood. By pairing delicate tonal transitions with measured brushwork, Nam’s work probes the spatial limits of abstraction, creating a field of depth that exists between the known and the unknown.

Highlights of recent exhibitions include ‘Nothing New under the Sun’, Solo Exhibition at LBF Contemporary, London (2024), ‘Within and Beyond’, Rosenfeld Gallery, London (2023); ‘Nouvelle Vague’ lbf contemporary, London(2023); ‘Timescapes’, Shtager&Shch, London (2023); ‘Passages’, D Contemporary, London (2023); Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, London (2022).In 2024, Min Woo was an artist-in-residence at Vannucci Artist Residency supported by The Deighton Family Foundation in Umbria, Italy.
