    Curtain for Earrings: Yoonjeong Lee's Art Comes to the LINE LA

    Step into the world of Seoul-based artist Yoonjeong Lee on this episode of HEAR Here. Host Jack Inslee sits down at the Line LA in Koreatown, Los Angeles, to explore Lee’s journey from childhood crafting to becoming a celebrated sculptor and metalworker. Lee’s work, featured in the exhibitions Curtain for Earrings at the Line LA and Heroes and Protagonists at Gobi in East Hollywood, reimagines everyday objects like nails and earring holders, elevating their overlooked importance. Through this conversation, conducted entirely in Korean and translated by curator Jenny from Gobi, Lee reflects on her unique artistic process, her fascination with casting metals, and her first use of AI to create “third skin” textures. The discussion delves into her philosophy of breaking down hierarchies, finding value in the small and unseen, and creating a world without dominant or subordinate roles. For Lee, art is a way to spotlight forgotten objects and challenge traditional notions of importance. Yoonjeong also shares personal reflections on her quiet personality and her curiosity about how a bolder version of herself might have shaped her art. After this introduction, the rest of the episode features the full conversation in Korean, with both Lee and Jenny responding entirely in their native language, preserving the authenticity of their dialogue.
