KOH
FINE ARTS
Through her oil painting, she expresses the concept of contradicting elements; life, death, and the complex psychological spaces in between. Her work is heavily influenced by the vibrant energy of New York City, and captures the nuances of the world surrounding her and the complexities of life. She aims to communicate the idea of contradiction and spirituality that resonates with the viewers.
Koh holds a Bachelor of FineArts degree with Honors from Parsons School of Design and studied BA (Hons) Fine Art Painting program at University of the Arts London as an exchange student. Before studying at ParsonsSchool of Design, she studied Academic writing at Columbia University.

OTHER ACTIVITIES
Supporting MET Orchestra Musicians in The Metropolitan Opera in the US during pandemic. This led to a project which enabled MET Orchestra Musicians to have the first physical private concert at Peak in Edge at Hudson Yards since the pandemic started, and it was broadcasted via YouTube with pay per view.
High Line Nine Gallery at Hudson Yards placed her 2 paintings at a room in the gallery owned by MET Orchestra Musicians for 1 month during AAPI (Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders).
Eventually, Koh was referred to as one of the main contributors for this concert on YouTube and as a new coming artist on their Face book by MET Orchestra Musicians.
