Hyein Anne Kwon is an Illustrator and Graphic Designer from Alberta University of the Arts: Illustration & Character Design. Inquisitive by nature and analytical by instinct, she moves between cultures — Canada, the U.S., and South Korea — with a sensitivity to how identity is quietly constructed through fashion, beauty, and everyday ritual. Her work is bold where it needs to be, and delicate where it counts.
Selected as one of the 21 Next Generation Artists of Alberta, her editorial and lifestyle illustration spans fashion, beauty, packaging, and cultural mapping.
