Dr Yein Son


Central to Yein Son's work is the physical analogy between the surface of a painting and bodily skin, its relevant metaphors, and interpretations. In addition to the paintings's materiality and 'skin-like' tactility, she has considered the symbolic value of 'skin' as a medium and painting method. Using psychoanalyst Didier Anzieu's concept of the 'Skin-ego', she has investigated the metaphor of skin as a thin interface between inner and outer. She has extrapolated this to develop a painting practice with a specific haptic visual vocabulary based on layering. Yein now lives and works in Seoul after completing her PhD at Slade School of Fine Art, UCL in 2022.
