A selection of work from artist Yeon Yeoin's latest solo exhibition with DIA contemporary. Born and based in Seoul, Yeon majored in Psychology and Creative Visual Arts at Sogang University.

Using a wide range of techniques, from pen and ink to digital painting, Yeon creates a unique world inspired by her personal experiences and filled with original characters that reflect difficult-to-define emotional states.
