Justin Yoon

Justin Yoon (b. 1991, Los Angeles, California) is a Brooklyn based painter. Justin  holds a B.F.A in Illustration from Parsons School for Design, NY. Early  childhood memories of American junk food, late night old Hollywood movies on the TV, and listening to jazz in the car with his family on  long drives significantly affected him to create a world of romantic  melancholia, synthetic colors, and casual lostness of being. With no specific emotions provoked, the group of characters reoccur over and  over in a deeply synthetic yet ambiguous dream-like landscape,  continuing on this never ending "Highschool Reunion". The viewer becomes a part of this experience, which is vaguely both universal yet deeply personal.
