About The Artwork

I make abstract paintings with paper. I begin by applying several layers of paper on a canvas, and rip them apart and and peel them repeatedly after being dried. Once completed, it is left with an intense, tempestuous, and complicatedly textured surface laden with fiber debris from paper. Overall, my paintings have an archeological quality as viewers can sense different levels and layers of paper that have been intentionally built and destroyed, leaving empirically unforeseeable and incalculable complex traces, reminiscent of human emotions and nebulous natures of our lives and us. This process of art making involves a high level of craftsmanship, as it is extremely labor intensive and physical. Hence, I think of my work as something that blurs and crosses lines between art, design and craft. Lastly, my intention as an artist is to provide viewers with a sense of composure; at the same time, to sense the imminent messiness and convolutedness that exist right underneath the top layer.

Young makes abstract paintings with paper. At the core of her practice, she explores the concept of impermanence as it relates to life, and the beauty of such mercuriality and unpredictability embedded in the life form. Techniques and process are key to expressing her intention as she unearths the essence of the theme of ephemerality by peeling away colored paper that was first meticulously layered and copiously built up. She is inspired by this process of building and removing intricate layers in order to reveal what is underneath and between – birthing something entire new from the ashes of destruction. In her body of work, melding her past experiences and passion together, Young combines elements from art, design, and craft. Young received her BA in Philosophy from Occidental College, and post graduate studies in Fashion Design from Parsons School of Design. Her paintings have been exhibited and placed by galleries and collectors throughout the United States, Europe, and Asia. She currently lives and works in Los Angeles.
