Jean Shin‘s solo show, Surface Tension at Cristin Tierney Gallery (NYC) has been reviewed by Karen Kedmey for Artsy.
From the article:
“Visually, the rough yet elegant panels could be mistaken for professional-grade abstract paintings. In fact, these paintings didn’t come from Shin’s studio; they came from the streets of New York. Intrigued by the plywood walls that surround the city’s infinite construction sites, Shin began collecting the disused panels. She recognized artistic allure in their accidental, abstract beauty, but in the wood’s pockmarks and painted-over graffiti, she also saw powerful expressions of the city’s ever-changing urban fabric.”

Surface Tension closes April 2nd.
