Emily Yeonsoo Jung develops cyclical sculptural systems that metabolise material and immaterial residue through release, delay, and transformation. Drawing from ritual architectures and structures of loss,  her work treats absence as a charged threshold through which residue can be softened, transformed and returned to circulation.

Employing rice water, glass, pewter, steel, and other mutable substances, Jung composes breathing structures that filter, disperse, and reform material across spatial and psychic thresholds. By pushing the properties of her materials, she investigates in-between states where presence and absence, and material and immaterial conditions, are reconfigured.
