Insung Yoon

Overview
Insung Yoon's process often begins with extensive research into historic primitivism, stemming from her Korean heritage; experimenting and learning about the history behind the objects and rituals she grew up with.

Insung draws inspiration from the minimalist forms of traditional Korean pottery, particularly the humble ‘moon-jar'; pulling them into the contemporary conversation by introducing unexpected colors, creating subtle variations in the surface, and design elements over different times. 

Through this manipulation of her medium and reinterpretation of her history, she creates one-of-a-kind objects that breathe new life into a centuries-old craft.
