ABOUT THE ARTIST
Jazoo Yang’s work addresses urban redevelopment and the resulting loss of memory and place. Currently based in Seoul, she uses a variety of media, such as painting, sculpture, installation, and performance, to document disappearing spaces and memories in a rapidly changing urban environment. In her previous works, Yang sourced found materials from demolition sites and discarded construction supplies to explore the relationship between urbanization and memory. By reviving the memories of vanishing buildings and the people who are involved with them, Yang visualizes a complex sense of belonging where past, present, and social change become entangled. Individuals are not fixed to a single selfhood, but reconstruct their identities through different social and cultural contexts, embodying the concept of multiple belongings.
