Christina Yoo

Christina Yoo was born in South Korea, and began working out of the Downtown LA studio in 2007, and now works out of the South LA studio. She has been a continuous source of inspiration to both her peers and mentors. Her work is a dedicated and ongoing study of the natural world and her place within it, as such her paintings often contain a mixture of objective observation and surrealist interpretations of the quotidian. This amalgamation between the commonplace and the fantastic are aesthetically reinforced via her energetic brushwork and lively palette which function in sharp contrast to the common subject matter at center of her work.
