Jiyoung Moon

About
Moon Jiyoung has worked across painting, installation and video to make visible the discrimination, stigma, and care she has faced while living with her younger sister Hyekyoung, who has a disability. Through scenes drawn
from her family’s everyday life, she exposes society’s attitudes toward ‘the extraordinary’ and questions dominant notions of normalcy. More recently, she has been reflecting on the strange and complex emotions she has experienced as a ‘non-disabled sister’ who lives with disability as an ever-present part of life, addressing the affects surrounding caregiving and those entangled in it. She has held numerous solo exhibitions, including ( ) and ( ), and has presented her work in various group exhibitions such as So called Normal Family(Suwon Museum of Art, Suwon, 2023), Busan Biennale – We, on the Rising wave(Museum of Contemporary Art Busan,
Busan, 2022), and The Caring Society (Gyeongnam Art Museum, Changwon, 2021). She was selected as a resident artist of MMCA Goyang Residency (2024-2025) and Cheongju Art Studio (2025-2026).
