Born in Korea in 1976 and currently living in Richmond
Virginia, Bohyun Yoon is an assistant professor at Virginia
Commonwealth University. Yoon is interested in the invisible
properties of glass (transparency, refraction, and distortion), and
continuously explore ways of making those properties visible. These
invisible but real properties of glass are an appropriate medium to
explore hidden aspects of societal conventions and stereotypes. He
exposes socially constructed notions of race, class, and gender by
combining images of the human body with materials that possess
invisible properties. Yoon received two MFAs from both Rhode Island
School of Design and Tama Art University in Japan. He participated
in the fellowship programs at the Kyoto University of Art and
Design in Japan and the Center for Emerging Visual Artists in
Philadelphia. He is a recipient of the Excellence Prize of Song Eun
Art, the S&R Washington Award, and the Hayward Prize for Fine
Arts. His work has been included in national and international
exhibits including Renwick Gallery in the Smithsonian Museum of
American Art, Museum of Arts and Design, Contemporary Arts Museum
in Houston and Cheongju International Craft Biennale in Korea. He
has also exhibited at the Shelburne Museum, Brattleboro Museum,
Hunter College, Brown University, Collection Gallery in Paris. His
work is in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian American
Art Museum, West Collection, and Song Eun Art Space.
