/ Biography
Seon was born in Seoul South Korea. She has an MA in Art Psychotherapy at Lasalle College of the Arts in
Singapore and also holds a BA in Graphic Design & Communication from Central Saint Martins College of Art
and Design, in London, UK.
Seon’s work experience includes a career in the branding industry in London with Interbrand, as well as an independent consultant. Her career kindled a passion and desire for the arts and psychology, which led to the
pursuit of her Master of Arts (Art Therapy) program at Lasalle after moving to Singapore. Seon’s clinical
experiences in Singapore have facilitated her to see the healing power of art therapy through the use of various
media and the non-intrusive stance of an art therapist.
She chose to study art therapy in order to examine and analyse her own life. As she continued her professional
career and reflected on her childhood, she realized that life and its circumstances influence each individual both positively and negatively. The key to overcoming blind negativity and truly growing up is to consciously recognize
and embrace the illumination of positivity. Only then can one channel past negative energy towards a positive
outcome in similar circumstances that may occur in the future. This concept is the foundation of Seon’s“ shirubean” series.
