Yuwol June C. (born 1993 in South Korea) is a multidisciplinary artist, who uses a variety of mediums such as: performance, painting, video, installations, digital art and prints.
The use of a variety of mediums allows June C. to examine the boundaries of self-identity and social definitions.
The artist's works often counter the themes within the obscured borders of technology and humanity; and interrogating how new political, theoretical and social structures form and thrive in these new portals of being. The physical presence of the body, is a recurring motif in the artist’s body of works, emphasizing the allegorical contexts that accompany the existence of the body. The body appears in different personas and narratives, contrasting, intersecting, from Western and Eastern culture, female and male, breaks accepted dichotomies and offers in their place allegorical contexts that summon multiple meanings.
