한예희




Kaela Han (b. 1996) is a self-taught, Korean American artist based in San Francisco, California. Using oil paints and graphite, she takes inspiration from the natural world to create images that evoke feelings of nostalgia and quietude. Her practice is a way for her to find stillness within the world around her; a way for her to reflect and process. She is currently a member of the Korean American Artist Collective (KAAC) where she continues to explore her creative practice within a collaborative and culturally engaged artist space.
