Artist: Bohyun Yoon | Location: Boiling Springs, VA
Boiling Springs, VA
Born in Korea in 1976 and currently living in Richmond Virginia, Bohyun Yoon is an assistant professor at Virginia Commonwealth University. Yoon is interested in the invisible properties of glass (transparency, refraction, and distortion), and continuously explore ways of making those properties visible. These invisible but real properties of glass are an appropriate medium to explore hidden aspects of societal conventions and stereotypes. He exposes socially constructed notions of race, class, and gender by combining images of the human body with materials that possess invisible properties. Yoon received two MFAs from both Rhode Island School of Design and Tama Art University in Japan.
