Drawing & Painting
“My work is an extension of how I see my life - and as such, all lives. It questions viewers about how they see their lives, how they are going to unfold. Such questions, that is, self-reflection, are induced through interaction with the work by making viewers encounter the instability of life through mirrors as the medium. For this, I express psychological and emotional states - the anxiety, doubt, frustration and confusion felt by human beings - with visual strategies such as distortion and reflection.”
Hyun Young Yang is an interdisciplinary artist born in South Korea. Yang expands her artistic reach beyond the two-dimensional space of canvas to three-dimensional work, video and interactive art. Yang focuses on exploring the meaning of human life in relation to her personal experiences and visualizing it. For this, she does not limit her use of materials and methods in expressing them. It challenges her work to be more diverse and interactive.
