Heeyoung Noh (b. 1995, South Korea) is an artist currently based in Glasgow. She graduated from Sungshin Women’s University in 2019 and the MFA at the Glasgow School of Art in 2024. She was selected for the John Moores Painting Prize in 2025. Recent exhibitions include, New Gen: The Emerging Voices, Korean Cultural Centre UK, London (2025); Submerged Attachment, The Tagli, London (2025); LAG, with LAG collective, Cosmo 40, Incheon (2024); RUB RUB RUB, Salt Space, Glasgow (2023); and DAMP, Gallery Philosophie, Seoul (2023).

Through painting, Noh explores the complexities and precarity of diasporic identity as an East Asian woman in Scotland, whilst interrogating intergenerational trauma within private and personal spaces. < IN HER BEDROOM > will continue to confront these themes through a series of new paintings, whilst sharing a personal experience of living and finding joy despite the anxieties that underpin it all.
