There is such a bridge in the American drama "The Great Mrs. Maisel": the heroine's mother Rose insisted on running to Paris to study art, but she never thought of becoming an artist, and even said to the female students in the art school who studied drawing: "Why do you want to get a degree in the art department?" There were no female artists in the United States, there were several in Paris before, one gave up, no one knew where she was now, and the other committed suicide, mainly because no one wanted to buy girls' art. ”
Although it is a bridge section, it is also a fact of that era.
Since the 1960s, women's art has attracted attention. The historical discovery and research of women's art on a global scale continue to deepen, especially in the direction of the art market, and women's art has begun to have the meaning of hard currency. Of course, this "game" is still hilarious between cultural hegemony and artistic powers. However, it is precisely because of the historical search and rediscovery that it is studied and sorted out. As a representative painter of contemporary Korean women's art, Kim Sang-sook's creation is full of humanistic care and daily aesthetics of female consciousness, and in the special context of Korean art history, she represents the current value and significance of Korean women's art, so that the outside world is full of expectations for women's art in the context of Korean history and reality.

As the art world paid more and more attention to female artists, more and more collectors began to pay attention to the works of women artists. In Kim Sang-sook's works, a romantic feeling and comfort feeling unique to women are revealed.
When many viewers look at Kim Sang-sook's works, they will feel that they have also been melted into tenderness. After all, giving poetry to the fragmented everyday is something that women artists excel at. Women's genetic talents allow them to sink deeper into their hearts and show a more delicate world.
Romantic, there are many kinds. Kim Sang-sook's romance is an ideal state built on women's daily insights and realized through light. The intricate branches stretch comfortably into the sky, and the magpies hide in the pink peach blossoms, resting leisurely... Light and shadow add a romantic filter to the daily life, and the short romantic memories in those impressions are also awakened by a beam of light, becoming a precious and soft secret place in the heart.
