This exhibition runs October 25, 2025 - February 11, 2026 at Dunlop Art Gallery (Sherwood Village Branch)
Jinny Yu’s paintings use geometric forms to examine ideas of belonging and place and the shifting roles of guest and host. She creates room-like spaces using cuboid shapes in her abstract work that appear to fold, flip, invert, and reconfigure, offering a visual reminder of how perspectives can change with subtle variations of tone or colour. Having lived in many parts of the world, she shares the complex and personal nature of feeling connected within a place, a concept which is different for everyone and shaped by life experience.
Jinny Yu is an artist based in Ottawa and Berlin. Her work has been widely exhibited, including at the Art Gallery of Ontario (2024), the 56th Venice Biennale (2015) and Kunst Doc Art Gallery, Seoul (2012). Her works are held in major collections such as the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, AGO, and Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec.
