Hanne Darboven
German ยท b. 1941

Darboven similarly worked with grid paper as a primary support, filling sheets with repetitive written and drawn systems that explore seriality and pattern across multi-part installations. Her methodical approach to organizing information on ruled paper shares a direct conceptual and material kinship with Yang's collage work.

Walid Raad
Lebanese ยท b. 1967

Raad creates multi-part archival and collage based works that reframe found documents and patterns within carefully considered presentation structures, much like Yang's use of envelope security patterns as repurposed source material. Both artists transform mundane printed matter into layered conceptual pieces through serial repetition and framing.
Simon Evans
British ยท b. 1972
Evans constructs intricate collages and drawings on found paper using repetitive marks, patterns, and grid structures that closely mirror Yang's material sensibility and obsessive serial logic. His use of everyday paper ephemera as a compositional ground parallels Yang's transformation of envelope security patterns into contemplative geometric works.
