Korean artist Ham Myung-su, born in 1966, is known for his unique depiction of urban landscapes. His 2001 work, 'Noodle Landscape,' created in Seoul, portrays cities as living organisms using a technique that combines broad brushstrokes with fine detail work. Ham's approach captures the essence of modern life, seeking the 'true nature of painting' through his artworks. In 2010, his focus shifted towards nature, emphasizing an organic representation similar to the philosophy 'paint as it flows.' His pieces like 'Noodle Landscape' and 'Alive' symbolize the existence of beings hidden within urban and natural environments.
