The moment when attention gathers around a small painting it’s something I quietly value (Term 1 Crit)

Is this far away,
or just seen from elsewhere?

A year of painting, drawing, questioning, changing, and thinking.

One of the things I struggled with most during studio time was knowing when to stop. 

When to leave a painting alone, when to push it further, and when something has already arrived before I fully understand it.
I still don’t think it’s something I can know completely in advance. 

But through conversations, and different perspective and insights I shared with other amazing artists around me, 
I feel I’ve learned to trust that uncertainty a little more. 
And yes I’m already looking forward to returning to the studio after the show and dealing with that uncertainty again through painting.♾️

So what I want to say is come to see where my painting finally landed ! 🌐🫂

Introducing Yujin Jung (b. 2000) @_yuijn

Yujin Jung is a painter who questions contemporary visual culture.

From an early age, she was exposed to advertising production environments, developing an interest in the constructed nature of images and the gap between what is visible and what remains concealed.

She graduated from Chelsea College of Arts, where her practice was further shaped through theoretical engagement. Inspired by a philosopher who described contemporary society as a form of digital panoptic visual communication, she introduced recurring circular structures that reflect systems of observation and the tension between visibility and invisibility.

Drawing on aerial and satellite perspectives, her practice translates views inaccessible to the human eye into painting. Her works construct images that are simultaneously near and distant, visible yet elusive.

 “For me, painting materialises the contradictions embedded within systems of seeing in the image-saturated era. I want to ask how we see, and how much of what we see is actually constructed for us.”

There is no fixed orientation to this work.
During the exhibition, it was installed inverted , unsettling the viewer’s sense of visual certainty.

The image resists a singular direction, operating instead as a field where perception is continuously negotiated.

What appears stable begins to tilt;
what seems resolved slips back into ambiguity.

Opening Night | Recap | Develop The Occurrence

Thank you to everyone who came by for the opening

It meant a lot to see people spending time with my works 🖤 moving closer, stepping back, and staying with the images in their own way. 

Those moments of looking, pausing, and sensing felt like part of the work itself.

I’m really grateful for all the conversations, the attention, and the energy that filled the space that night.

Hope to see you again soon :)

On view until 27 April📍
Open 12–5pm, Monday–Friday
For weekend visits, please contact the curator @no.444_goose

𝘉𝘦𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘥 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘎𝘢𝘻𝘦
2024
Oil on Canvas
162 x 112 cm

“I paint to expose the fractures in seeing—those moments when vision slips, contradicts itself, and refuses to hold still,” Yujin said. 

Yujin Jung (b. 2000, South Korea) is a painter whose practice questions the stability of vision. Her sensitivity to constructed images was first developed through spending time in advertising set studios with her father - a place she observed scenes built to appear real yet always carrying traces of fabrication. This experience influenced her work to examine how perception is shaped by framing, omission, and contradiction. Yujin studied BA Fine Art at Chelsea College of Arts, UAL and is currently pursuing an MA in Painting at the Royal College of Art to continue her investigation into how contemporary conditions, such as mapping systems, aerial perspectives, and algorithmic forms of sight, mediate the way images are encountered. Working across oil, watercolour, and mixed media, she creates shifting surfaces where forms blur, invert, and dissolve, exposing the fragility of visual understanding.

In 𝘉𝘦𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘥 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘎𝘢𝘻𝘦, fleeting images surface only to slip away again: an inverted portrait appears as a misremembered echo, while the residue of a monumental cake lingers as softened colour and gesture. Vision here becomes unstable and temporal; proximity does not clarify, but instead distorts.
