Jin-me Yoon

In these layered works, Yoon continues to address the subject matter of diasporic experience, colonialism, imperialism and militarism, but with a politicized awareness of what it means to live and work as a diasporic artist on land stolen from Indigenous peoples. Characterized by a restrained poetic style, use of slowness and repetition, and sensory use of sound, Yoon’s recent corpus is undergirded by a strong environmentalist thrust. Recurring tropes include cinematic tableaux of individuals integrated within the Pacific West Coast’s stunning natural landscapes.
