Allyson Jeong Korean
Overview
Allyson Jeong is a Korean sculptor whose multidisciplinary practice moves across sculpture, installation, and painting, rooted in a deep engagement with metal as both structure and sensate matter. Drawing from her training in metalcraft, she shapes brass and stainless steel into tensile forms that oscillate between precision and vulnerability. Her works articulate a quiet choreography of balance and suspension, where asymmetry and repetition evoke processes of growth, compression, and release.
Jeong’s practice considers the body as a site of resonance, extending its internal rhythms into spatial form. Material becomes a conduit through which invisible energies are made perceptible, tracing the threshold between interior states and external space. In this exhibition, her characteristic undulations expand beyond the scale of the body into the surrounding architecture, activating the gallery as a field of vibration. Through these gestures, static matter is reoriented as something sentient, carrying a frequency that registers both presence and transformation.
Her work has been exhibited internationally, including at the Monaco Art Fair and the Seoul International Sculpture Festa, and she has maintained a sustained trajectory of solo exhibitions in Seoul and New York since 2008. Select collaborations with BMW and La Perla further situate her practice within a global dialogue between contemporary sculpture, design, and luxury culture.
