Through community engagement and an intricate and labor intensive process, Jean Shin transforms everyday objects into large scale installations. She collects large quantities of objects that refer to their previous user, making connections to the human body, the individual, and our society. Shin’s exhibitions include the New Museum of Contemporary Art, the Museum of Art and Design, the Houston Museum of Fine Arts, the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, Asia Society and Museum, The Brooklyn Museum,Sculpture Center, Socrates Sculpture Park, and Cristin Tierney Gallery in New York City.
