Behind the Curtains explores one’s transition through trauma and what is left afterwards. The loss of oneself both physically and mentally is its main theme. Yoon also wanted to play with the change in perspective of a trauma. As time passes by, old wounds heal and fade away. Trauma becomes something one look into as a third person, not live in it anymore. One can always close the curtains and avoid it.

Bo Yoon is an artist based in Seoul, South Korea. Her current work includes series of illustration where she documents how anxiety build up, adapt and change its nature over the course of time. Her style is made up of reduced color palette with a hint of horror. Bo has earned her BFA at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2013. She has exhibited work at multiple group exhibition and illustration fairs in Chicago, London and Seoul.
