Nail artist Sojin Oh reveals the creative process beyond her creations for Björk, Arca, Rosalía and more
Nail artist Sojin Oh transforms the menial into the magical with her finger-sized sculptures crafted from the detritus of everyday life. Her creations include seascape nails made from fish bones, baby shark teeth, caracol shell, oyster shell, and sea glass; talons constructed from the broken innards of a cell phone; and wearable terrariums constructed entirely out of enamel. The result is a singular range of nail art that looks unlike anything else in the business.
Nature remains Oh’s most enduring influence and she sights taking care of the natural world and herself as the key to her creativity. ‘During my childhood days, I thought making yourself look “confident” by wearing a ton of make-up was what I thought beauty meant, and since I was never knowledgeable with make-up, I thought I could never be beautiful. But when I started taking care of myself more, I started to feel beautiful – then I realised the ideas I had in my early years were totally wrong.
