Nina Jun: “Making ceramic balloons allows me to travel from earth into the grander space of the universe. I have been recreating the stars and constellations in my ceramic balloon works with polka dots and 3D butterflies. What makes me more fascinated in looking at the telescopic images of galaxies and cosmos is the radiant echo of light emitting from the webs of stars. Each galaxy has its own characteristics by form and color. I try to capture galaxies' mysterious echoes of light on the facades of ceramic balloons in simplified geometric patterns.“
Nina Jun was born in Seoul, Korea and lives and works in the Los Angeles area in California. She received an MFA in Sculpture from California State University of Long Beach in 2001. Nina Jun participated at 12 solo shows and 15 international contemporary art fairs in the U.S., Canada, Korea and the UK. Her works have been published in Sculpture Magazine, Los Angeles Times, Korea Monthly Ceramics, Ceramics Review, SculpturesPacific Magazine, Home&Office Concept and Designboom Magazine for Architecture, Art & Design.
