Bin Youn (she/her, b.1990, Seoul, South Korea) is an lens-based multimedia artist working mainly in photography and spatial video installation using light and sculptural forms based in Long Beach, California, U.S.A, and Seoul, South Korea.
Her work is focusing on sensory-based moving image installation, asking viewers to navigate in spacetime. Bin's interest is toward the invisible interaction with light-forms and space-colors through bodily experience. Bin's work also explores the ruptures of cultural disparities in language.
Youn received M.F.A. at California State University Long Beach in 2023.  She received her B.A. and B.B.A. in Consumer Family Sciences and Business Administration from Sungkyunkwan University in Seoul, South Korea, in 2013. She was on Dean's list from 2009 to 2011 and studied abroad at Paris Graduate School of Management in Paris, France in 2011.
