Jiyoon Koo (b. 1999, South Korea) is an artist based in Brooklyn, New York. She received her BFA in Painting from Sejong University and is currently pursuing an MFA in Painting & Drawing at Pratt Institute.
Her work explores the tension between inner identity and external perception. Drawing on everyday experiences and memories, she transforms and reconstructs them to reveal identity as an ongoing and shifting process rather than a fixed state. Through this approach, Jiyoon investigates the point where self-perception and the gaze of others intersect.
