. The works from the series “Mikrokosmos Minus” focus on Jiwon Yang's severe shortsightedness. In it she handles the experience of how things change when they are looked at without glasses, that they enlarge, blur, and disappear, only remaining as vague forms and areas of colour. The impression remains as if she were standing in the fog, through which everything is only vaguely perceived. She translates this feeling of sight into her brooches which represent different characters. Here, the slender, clearly articulated, average proportioned forms of a body are depicted as seen with glasses, contrasting with huge heads, the features of which are blurred by the felt technique, and which thus articulate the view without glasses. This opposition is underlined by the white of the body with black contours and inner lines, from which the brightly coloured heads stand out clearly. The heads almost look like huge balloons that grow out of the body and are about to burst. Jiwon Yang understands this implementation of her own visual experience as a feeling of liberation and freedom.
