Micha Yu is a New York– and New Jersey–based artist whose work explores themes of nature, emotion, and memory through painting and sculptural language. She earned her B.A. from Ewha Womans University, completed language studies at New York University, and studied jewelry design, fashion design, and trade at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), gaining a broad interdisciplinary perspective. She later studied speech at Baruch University and has been actively working at the Art Students League of New York since 2010.

She has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions, primarily in New York and New Jersey, and currently serves as a board member of the Korean Artists Association of New York. Her work integrates painting with craft and poetic sensibility, delicately expressing the beauty of nature and the inner dimensions of life, informed by a wide range of personal experiences.
