Yo Li's illustrated notes from nature are an invitation to step outside and explore
Briefly

Yo Li's illustration practice is focused on observing and recording the changes in nature across South Korea's four seasons. Living on Jeju Island, they begin their creative process with outdoor excursions. During slow walks, they watch birds and discover smaller creatures, capturing the tranquility of nature. Each adventure leads to photographs and reflections that inspire their illustrations. Yo aims to cultivate a love for nature in others, believing this can motivate collective efforts in conservation through curiosity and exploration.

With binoculars, I venture outdoors on slow walks to watch birds and explore smaller lifeforms, feeling a quiet sense of peace amidst unfolding scenes.
Photographs during walks help me frame small details of natural landscapes, culminating in short reflections and illustrations created with acrylic markers and digital techniques.
A deeper love for nature can unite people to protect it, and I hope my work encourages others to grow curious about nature and explore.
