Mina Cheon (천민정) (b. 1973, Seoul, South Korea) is a global Korean new media artist, scholar, and educator who lives and works between Baltimore, New York, and Seoul and exhibits her political pop art known as “Polipop” internationally. Being a part of the Korean diaspora, Cheon’s art results from a life-time of working with a postcolonial and comparative cultural lens and making contemporary art that is in historic alignment to appropriation art and global activism art, while focusing on North Korean awareness, Korean unification, and global peace projects.

I am an artist. It took me nearly 40 years to say that, despite 40 years of creativity that might say otherwise. My first love is photography. Decades after my introduction to the darkroom and all that is the glory of film, my photography business is booming and I’m thankful for many amazing clients and the freedom it gives me to set my own schedule and be there for my kids. But I missed working with my hands. When a local Silver Spring mosaic artist put out a call for interns, I jumped. Suddenly, I was in love again.
