Los Angeles, USA, b. 1985
In a space in between composition and abstraction, April Yang continues to use painting as a common language that includes individual appreciation. She obtained her MFA in Painting at the Royal College of Art after studying Painting at the Korea National University of Arts, and she has exhibited her work both in the UK and in Korea. Her interest in life derives from her diasporic background, having lived in several locations, and been exposed to other cultures since she was a young child. She also looks for ways to communicate across linguistic and cultural barriers. She enjoys in illustrating the spirit of mankind and environment in a range of materials and scales, whether it be in a vibrant portrait or an abstraction with a focus on color and line. Her work is intuitive and sensitive, and she hopes to appreciate it with reflection and contemplation to purify visitors’ minds and consciousness and find peace and optimism.
