Jooyun Lim
Ceramics
Jooyun originates from Seoul, South Korea where she completed Bachelor of Fine Art in Ceramic Art, before making the challenging decision to relocate to Australia to start a new life more than a decade ago. Her upbringing and education in South Korea may contribute to the uniqueness and beauty of her work. When she decided to settle in Stanthorpe, a rural town in QLD, her inspiration and motivation were influenced by the particular landscape of this region - its trees and nature.
"Through my work, I like to explore irresistible human desire, basic needs - things that I value in life, whirlwind of emotion as a person, being different and various experiences from being different in an unfamiliar environment as well as showing appreciation of my surrounded nature."
Jooyun has been a finalist in statewide competitions and has exhibited around Australia.
