Project Description
Ms. Chung was born in Seoul in 1969 and raised in the Brooklyn. She received her BFA at the School of Visual Arts in 1993 and began her artistic career experimenting with variety of mediums, including silkscreen, etching, collage, and silver pointe, before concentrating on photography. Her distinct style is the product of her rich background in classical painting, art history, kinesiology, and deep interest in Jungian psychology. Chung mentors young inner city children in Brooklyn during her free time. In “Skin and Stone”, Chung explores some of the least accessible reaches of the Icelandic terrain and their impact on the human psyche. Her most recent project, together with Nature Photographer Pat Schoenfelder, “Wind Spirit Speaks“, explores several artistic potentials of horses captured on film in their natural settings.
