JUNO YOUN ARTIST STATEMENT

MADE IN MONTREAL

En considérant le monde différent by


JUNO YOUN


MADE IN MONTREAL holds a multitude of moments that I have been able to revisit through this artistic journey. Upon reflection of my time spent in Montreal I can easily see my changing attitudes, moods, from simple happiness to the anxiety of my challenges after the car accident.
Each of these very different emotions and feelings are graphically expressed in my own language or symbolism. Shapes, textures, colours, etc. each shaped by the desire to communicate my inner feelings. This series is shaped through the collection of artistic statements I can pinpoint some of the artistic actions which are a direct response to they way I felt at a particular moment in time. Often stifled by trying to convey emotions verbally, I find a strong sense of confidence in this other form of translating my immediate feelings and thoughts. The artistic language shows signs of homage or tribute to many of the artist’s works that have influenced me over my career. This series has, for me found a common ground that is comforting. The shared space is that of my own artistic expression mixed with the assortment of influences culminating in a satisfying place of my own. My vision and voice have found a comfortable place and it feels good.”
