Jiangli (Joannie) Tian

Jiangli (Joannie) Tian is a businesswoman and cosmetic design artist. She is currently studying for her B.A. in Journalism at Humber College, Toronto. 
When she told her friends in China that she was interested in studying Journalism, they asked: “Journalism? Are you crazy? You are wasting money on journalism. The journalism field is dying. How do you plan on living? The salary and work conditions are bad for a journalist. You should better change your major right away. Are you ready to only eat tomato soup for the rest of your life?”
Jiangli's reply to her friends was simple. "For my personal reason, I come from an ethnic minority called the Tujia people in the People's Republic of China. In my hometown, I am the first and the only one who has gone abroad to study. So, people in my hometown are expecting me to bring something valuable and important back to them. I expect that I shall have that ability to bring something back in the future. I may not have a big money to help those who need help. But I could be a mentor who provides guidance and assistance to young people who are confused in their lives. This can only happen if I can become a knowledgeable journalist in the future. I want to help in reducing the school dropout rate and guide young people to choose better majors in college. Also, I want to tell them stories about the outside world. Most important, I want to change such old traditions as early teen marriage, leaving school early, and not valuing the education of females. All these have historically been associated with a future life of poverty. I expect to be a bridge who can assist students to study abroad and obtain a better education in the future."
Education
After attending the Shanghai Villa Training College (makeup, beauty, manicure, design), , Jiangli Tian eventually owned three nail salons know as Young Hand Salon in Shanghai. These were in three separate hotels. She continued to take training courses at the O.P.I. agency and distributor of cosmetic and nail products in China. After selling her nail salons to one of her employees, Jianli enrolled at the Dalian University of Foreign Languages (大连外国语大学) and the Dalian New Oriental School both in Liaoning province to learn English.
Jiangli was born in a village called Zouma, Hefeng county, Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture (恩施土家族苗族自治州). This is in the Wuling mountains (武陵山脉) in the southwestern corner of Hubei province. Zhangjiajie (张家界), Hunan province is the closest city to Zouma, a mere nine to ten hour bus ride. 
Joannie Tian is a member of the eight million strong Tujia (土家族) minority people, which is the 6th largest ethnic minority in the People's Republic of China. Tujia means "local" people in contrast to the Hakka (Kejia 客家) implying "wandering" people. 
It is thus remarkable that Jiangli Tian is less "local" and has travelled from Zouma to Shanghai and now lives in Toronto studying journalism, a discipline that is more "global" and "wandering" than "local".

Jihee Min

Korea-born Canadian, Jihee Min explores art as means to formulate a voice for an identity. Min often includes herself as a posing sculpture to respond to her displaced existence, and her yearning for childhood creates an imaginary character that relates across the complexity of time and space of a visual minority in Canadian society.
Jihee Min obtained MFA in Studio Arts at Concordia University in May 2008 and BFA with Honors in Sculpture & Installation at Ontario College of Art & Design in May 2005. She has received numerous awards and scholarships for her work including the Project and Travel Grant from Canada Council for the Arts, the Concordia MFA Studio Arts Award from Concordia University, the Sir Edmund Walker Scholarship, the Carmen Lamanna Scholarship and the Sumo Art & Technology award from Ontario College of Art & Design.
Jim Paek

Jim Paek (Korean: 백지선, Baek Chi-sun) (born April 7, 1967) is a former professional ice hockey player. Paek played in the National Hockey League from 1990–91 to 1994–95. He is the first of two Korean hockey players to ever play in the NHL – the other being Richard Park. He is currently an assistant coach with the Grand Rapids Griffins of the American Hockey League (AHL).
Paek was the first player of Korean descent to play hockey in the NHL. Paek was drafted by the Pittsburgh Penguins in the ninth round, 170th overall, in the 1985 NHL Entry Draft. Before joining the NHL in 1990–91, he played three seasons for the Oshawa Generals (1984–85 to 1986–87) of the OHL and three seasons with the Muskegon Lumberjacks (1987–88 to 1989–90) of the IHL. Paek also played 48 games for the Canadian National Team in 1990–91.
Paek's NHL career began with the Penguins in 1990–91. Upon entering the league, he became the first Korean-born hockey player to ever play in the NHL and since he was part of the Penguins' Stanley Cup run of 1990–91, he became the first Korean descent to have his name engraved on the Cup. His Penguins sweater now hangs in the Hockey Hall of Fame honouring this feat.
After four seasons and two Stanley Cups in Pittsburgh, Paek was traded mid-season to the Los Angeles Kings in 1993–94 as part of the deal that brought Tomas Sandström to the Penguins. After only 18 regular season games as a King, he moved on, signing with the Ottawa Senators for the 1994–95 NHL season.
After only 29 games with the Ottawa Senators in 1994–95, he left the NHL and began play in the International Hockey League. In the IHL, he played for the Houston Aeros, Minnesota Moose, Manitoba Moose, and Cleveland Lumberjacks. His next stop was Great Britain, where he joined the Nottingham Panthers of the British Ice Hockey Superleague. With the exception of 40 games in 2001–02 with the Anchorage Aces of the West Coast Hockey League, he played out the rest of his career with the Panthers, retiring after the 2002–03 season.
In five NHL seasons, Paek played 217 regular season games, scored 5 goals, had 29 assists for 34 points. He also racked up 155 penalty minutes. Added to his regular season totals are 27 playoff games, 1 goal, 4 assists, 5 points, and 8 penalty minutes.
Jin-me Yoon

Jin-me Yoon is a Korean-born internationally active Canadian artist,who emigrated to Canada at the age of eight. Currently she lives and works in Vancouver, B.C., and teaches at Simon Fraser University's School for the Contemporary Arts.
Yoon's works often employ photography, video and elements of performance to question constructions of identity within specific historical and social conditions. In 1991, the artist produced a work entitled Souvenirs of the Self which explores the relationship between notions of self and Other within dominant images of the Canadian landscape, most noticeably those which have been shaped primarily by tourism. The unconscious, memory, history, identity, place and nationhood are important themes for the artist, whose recent project, Unbidden, uses multiple-channel videos and photographs to allude to the psychic and physical conditions of the subject, particularly through migration, diasporic dispersal and displacement related to war and other geo-political conditions.
Her recent video work explores various cities, most notably in Korea and Japan. Formally tipping the vertical city of skyscrapers and bipedal humans onto a horizontal plane, Yoon evokes subliminal and inchoate associations with both the past and the present. For viewers experiencing the work within the gallery there is an uncanny sense of a dream-like immersion in the phantasmagoria of late modernity.
Over the past fifteen years her work has become known internationally and was shown 2008 at the Centre Culturel Canadien/Canadian Cultural Centre, Paris, France, Centro Cultural Montehermoso, Vitoria, Spain and Tank Loft in Chongqing, China. Her work has also been recently shown at the Up to/and including the limits, Argos Centre for Art and Media, Brussels, Belgium, Activating Korea, Govett-Brewster Art Gallery, New Plymouth, New Zealand, Videonale, Kunstmuseum Bonn, Germany, the National Gallery of Canada in 2006, Ssamzie Space in Seoul, Korea in 2006, the Vancouver Art Gallery in 2005 and in many other solo and group exhibitions in North America, Asia, Australia and Europe.
Jin Me Yoon

Jin Me Yoon is a vital member of the Vancouver art community as well as an active participant in international art discourse, for the past two decades her work has contributed to ongoing discussions of place and identity. Well-known earlier photographic works, such as Souvenirs of the Self (1991), use subtle humour and irony to tackle head on the narrative foundations of Nation and the very terms of inclusion as to who belongs “naturally” to these iconic Canadian touristic landscapes.
Along with many other artists in the 1980s and early 1990s, Jin-me Yoon’s work has critically foregrounded – through formal and conceptual means – the processes of racialization as well as sexual difference to subvert stereotypes and dominant discourses. Jin-me Yoon’s more recent video work explores the interrelationship between bodies, cities and history in an accelerated globalized era. In The dreaming collective knows no history (U.S. Embassy to Japanese Embassy, Seoul), 2006, she explores the city of her birth by formally tipping the vertical axis of the city and humans onto a horizontal plane. Rife with historical and contemporary references and associations – the movement of peoples, information and goods – the smooth flow of progress and power as well as the frantic pace of production and consumption are interrupted.
Jin-me Yoon has exhibited extensively nationally and internationally. She lives and works in Vancouver, teaching at the School for the Contemporary Arts at Simon Fraser University. Jin-me Yoon is represented by the Catriona Jeffries Gallery.
