I am a visual artist based between Seoul and Atlanta.
I was born in Seoul and grew up in Prague, Bangkok, and London.

I work with digital collage and installation, examining algorithmic image culture and contemporary modes of perception.

Bio

A woman wearing a black and gray jacket and light gray pants is bending over a wooden table with a laptop, papers, and QR codes on it. She is holding a white cord and appears to be scanning or connecting devices. In the background, there is a large projector screen with the time displayed as 9:36 AM.

My Practice

My work explores how digitally mediated images shape what we see, desire, and understand about ourselves and the places we inhabit. I am interested in how algorithmic systems direct attention and influence choices that can feel entirely our own.

An ongoing part of my practice involves collecting personalized advertisements from Instagram, taking them apart, and recomposing them as digital collages. Through painting, stitching, braiding, and installation, I translate these images into material forms. Images encountered briefly on a screen become objects with texture, weight, and duration.

This movement between digital images and physical materials is also a way of reconsidering agency. Selecting an image, rearranging its fragments, and deciding how to reconstruct it turn passive encounters into deliberate acts of interpretation. The time and bodily attention involved in making contrast with the speed at which images circulate online.

I work within and across its systems to examine how they structure perception. Through these material interventions, I explore how we might look longer, question what is presented to us, and take a more active role in our relationships with images.
