Yu Jinyoung: Hidden inner worlds come to light

For some reason, sculpture is usually not as interesting to me as much as 2D art forms (must be all the bronze leaping salmon you just can't escape in the Pacific Northwest...).
So it is rare that sculpture really catches my eye; but the amazing work from this Korean artist blew me away:

what about Jane Alexander? You should check her out. There are tons, I'll give you a list if you want...I'm an art historian, sorry.

@ tsu-mina: I'm not sure if it's glass; the gallery site mentions PVC I think
