Interview<br />
Seungeun Suh (aka HIBISCUS)<br />
Did you have any mentors along the way?<br />
None. If it is, I am myself.<br />
It is my own that is constantly in conflict.<br />
What is important to the artist is the technique<br />
that creativity and novelty are added to.<br />
I always feel attracted to myself and try to make<br />
something new for myself.<br />
Are your family and friends supportive of<br />
what you do?<br />
No family or friends supported my path from<br />
the beginning.<br />
My acquaintances began to recognize me as my<br />
painting became known to the public.<br />
Now I am supported by everyone around me.<br />
What advice would you give to a person<br />
starting out?<br />
The job of an artist is like a marathon.<br />
I would like to suggest that you get used to the<br />
life in the workshop and overcome the fight<br />
against loneliness.<br />
How does where you live to impact<br />
your creativity?<br />
I spend most of my time staring at the paintings<br />
in my studio, and most of my imaginations and<br />
experiments are done in my studio.<br />
There are more than 100 kinds of succulent<br />
plants in my workshop.<br />
Sometimes ideas come to mind when I rest in<br />
mountains and fields.<br />
