Jin-me Yoon

“Through a career that spans more than three decades and has gained local, national and international recognition, Yoon has remained relevant as an artist. Her rigorous work continues to grow and respond to shifting discourses around such questions as nationalism, diasporic identity, colonization and relations with Indigenous peoples.”

“While many institutions are only now waking up to the importance of embedding equity, diversity and inclusion across all of their activities, Yoon has been steadily addressing such issues through her work and ways of working during the past thirty years. As artists, curators, researchers, students, teachers, cultural workers and community members, we all have much to learn from her.”
