Haejin Yoon creates emerging new dimensions with fragments of memory drawn from various cultures, from ancient Lascaux cave paintings to extraterrestrial creatures in Sci-fi films. Yoon uses rich colors and uninhibited expressions to bring out her key word of High-Voltage Low-Tech reflected in her artworks. Her paintings and collage works depict new signs and icons with dynamic expressions. Following her undergraduate and graduate degrees in Fine Arts completed at Parsons School of Design, Yoon began her international career. She received wide attention following her solo exhibition at the A.I.R. Gallery (2009) receiving favorable reviews from New York Times critic, Roberta Smith.

With a twist on the human form, “Who Am I” strips down to its rawest configuration. Reverting to its simplest form of immediate brushstrokes, the figure melts into its background transcending the expected boundary between subject and space. Intuitive gestures transcend their own form and are delivered to the canvas unfiltered. With its pleading eyes and impassioned expression, the figure’s face is all we have left of its implied human figure.
