In her newest work, Yoon combines reworked images from a VHS copy of a North Korean film with contemporary footage of figures at Maplewood Flats Conservation Area in North Vancouver. As the artist writes, “I wanted to focus on the birds and the degraded footage as a poetic residue of the longing for all that is lost, especially for those separated during the Korean War as well as all that is carried of this experience through migration.” Unlike walls and borders, the birds first and foremost remind us that these boundaries are temporary, provisional and permeable.

The exhibition is produced and circulated by the Musée d’art de Joliette with the financial support of Ministère de la Culture et des Communications du Québec and Fondation du Musée d’art de Joliette.

The public programs are presented in partnership with the Korean Cultural Centre.
