The birds, flowers, and girls in Hwang Inran’s works carry symbolic meanings and form a subtle narrative. The bird, at times, serves as a guide leading us to the realm of the soul and eternity, while at other times, it becomes a mediator luring us into an absurd and negative world. The girl embodies the pure archetype of humanity, refining herself with goodness and beauty through introspection and moral contemplation. Beneath the dazzling bloom of roses that fill the canvas, the girl closes her eyes, and a butterfly rests gently like the shadow of life. In May, the lush foliage seeps into the tattoos on her skin and the folds of her dress, tinting them with the hues of youth. Her downcast gaze, indifferent lips, and the welling sorrow in her eyes are adorned with a radiant crown of flowers and a delicately perched bird. These elements illuminate her contemplation, transforming solitude into something beautiful.
