Jin-me Yoon is a Korean-born, Vancouver-based artist whose work explores the entangled relations of tourism, militarism, and colonialism. Since the early 1990s, she has used photography, video, and performance to situate her personal experience of migration in relation to unfolding historical, political, and ecological conditions. Through experimental cinematography and the performative gestures of family, friends, and community members, Yoon reconnects repressed pasts with damaged presents, creating the conditions for different futures. Over the last three decades, Yoon’s work has been exhibited internationally, and she has been the recipient of prestigious prizes both in Canada and abroad, including the Scotiabank Photography Award (2022), the Governor General’s Award in Visual and Media Arts (2025), and the Kim Byung-Jong Art Award (2025).
