Los Angeles-based artist Won Ju Lim is the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts’ 2013-14 Henry L. and Natalie E. Freund Teaching Fellow. She is in town to critique Washington University in St. Louis graduate students’ work and to debut “Raycraft is Dead,” a one-woman Currents exhibition at the Saint Louis Art Museum.

Opening Friday, April 11, the exhibition draws on autobiographical experiences to address the physical and psychological invasion of the private space.

We sat down with Lim to discuss her work, the upcoming show and her impressions of St. Louis. Visit here to read the Q&A.
