Yun Weedong masterfully utilizes watercolours to create hyperrealist images of human figures. Though the characters initially appear to be beautiful, upon closer inspection their flaws are uncovered – dirty fingernails, body hair, veins and wrinkles – and the paintings take on remarkable emotion with each imperfection. Often painted against a dark background, his figures fade in and out of the darkness, as if drifting precariously through life and death with ashen skin. Deeply psychological, these paintings play on our religious understandings of life, death and afterlife. Born 1982.Yun graduated with a BFA and MA in painting from Chung-Ang University. He has held two solo shows in Seoul and participated in a variety of group exhibitions in Seoul,Tel-Aviv and the US
