Jayoung Yoon: Sowing Seeds of Emptiness Exhibit at Garrison Art Center

Jayoung Yoon is a South Korean-born, New York-based artist whose primary medium is her own hair. Her work—which employs lengths of hair crossed and woven together to create semi-transparent sculptural forms and two-dimensional geometric images—draws upon the mind-matter phenomenon, exploring memory, perception, and bodily sensations. The delicate and tactile nature of the medium demands attention and presence to work that can shift as a result of subtle changes in airflow.
