The "Green Canvas" art group consists of 10 artists with severe developmental disabilities. The name was chosen through a recent employee contest and reflects the idea of painting the infinite potential of artists with disabilities and the future of green energy, which symbolizes eco-friendliness, together on a canvas. LS Electric plans to support stable creative activities to promote the expansion of employment for people with disabilities, vocational rehabilitation, and improvement of social awareness through culture and the arts.
The exhibition, held in the lobby of LS Tower, featured about 20 paintings created by the new "Green Canvas" members, which received an enthusiastic response from employees. The artists prepared works that incorporated images of the company's workplaces and solutions, reflecting the significance of joining LS Electric as new employees.
CEO Dae-Seok Chae of LS Electric stated, "I hope that the beautiful works created by Green Canvas will also embody the company's vision for the future and growth. We will actively support our employees who are artists with disabilities and continue to take responsible action to expand employment opportunities for people with disabilities and improve social awareness."
Meanwhile, in 2023, LS Electric previously founded the choir "Green Voice," consisting of eight employees with severe developmental disabilities. The group has moved audiences with various performances, including at Carnegie Hall in New York, USA.
