Visiting Assistant Professor, Art Education
Ji Yoon Chung is an interdisciplinary artist, educator, and researcher conducting doctoral research in the Department of Integrated Studies in Education at McGill University. As a visual arts educator at a children’s hospital, she explores how arts education can be integrated into hospital school settings, developing approaches that are inclusive and responsive to the evolving needs of pediatric patients.
In her studio practice, Ji Yoon investigates ways to translate fleeting, immaterial experiences into tangible forms. She often dissolves ink from printed photographs to evoke the erosion of memory, allowing new forms and meanings to emerge through the gradual degradation of imagery. Her work spans drawing, photography, sculpture, and digital fabrication, and has been exhibited in Providence, Boston, Reykjavík, and Seoul.
She holds an MFA in Digital+Media from the Rhode Island School of Design, an M.Ed. in Learning Design, Innovation, and Technology from the Harvard Graduate School of Education, and a BFA in Contemporary Art from Seoul Women’s University. She worked as a research assistant with Project Zero and the Learning Innovation and Technology Lab and has taught as a lecturer at Seoul Women’s University.
