YOONJIN JUNG
b. 1982, South KoreaYoonjin Yung is a recent MFA graduate from the Slade. Her beautiful site-specific sculptures and installations explore the concept of ‘Seeing the Unseen’ and are inspired by the emptiness in oriental painting and the definition of invisibility in relation to space. Every aspect of her work is carefully considered and planned, including the seemingly ‘empty’ or ‘unused’ spaces, which are in fact an essential element of her approach to sculpture. Yoonjin attempts to aid the viewer to an appreciation of the unseen and to simulate a discovery of what lies between the fragile boundary of invisibility and the visible.
