Park Junghae explores various themes in her paintings and drawings, focusing on how to think about and interpret physical conditions like light, water, and thermal energy, which exist in real space and time but are perceived conceptually. In her work, the accidental paint drops or marks and objects like colored paper create solid spatial layers through overlapping surfaces and lines, embodying a unique abstraction that conveys emotions through color psychology.
She has held solo exhibitions Ancient Refrigerator (CYLINDER, 2024), Jetlag (N/A, 2024), Mellow Melody (Whistle, 2021), Xagenexx (Onground2, 2017) and Dear. Drops (Archive Bomm, 2016). She has participated in group exhibitions at institutions, including the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea, Seoul Museum of Art, Ilmin Museum of Art, Hite Collection, DOOSAN Gallery Seoul, and Busan Biennale.

Seoul Museum of Art
a residency program operated by the Seoul Museum of Art (SeMA) that was launched in 2006 after remodeling unused facilities in Nanji Hangang Park. Conceived as a means of supporting capable artists and researchers in Korea, the Residency organizes exhibitions such as the 'NANJI ART SHOW' and 'Art Critic Workshop', and runs other programs designed to enhance exhibitions and research capability. It also operates the International Artist Exchange Program to utilize international residency network and multiply exchanges, and hosts lectures in which art experts from Korea and other countries are invited to participate. By 2009, SeMA Nanji Residency had firmly established itself as a creative studio by providing creative spaces and working conditions to domestic young artists. Starting in 2010, it began to take the form of a program by subdividing its activities into ‘exhibition’, ‘research and academics’, and ‘exchange’, and supporting and operating them systematically. Since 2012, it has been developing into an international residential organization by operating various programs.
