Bio

Yun Choi is a South Korean artist currently artist-in-residence at Rijksakademie, Amsterdam. From public spaces to popular media, Choi captures, compiles scenes that create a social climate, and repurposes them for her videos combined with mixed media installations, and performances. Her practice looks into the absurd emotional conflict caused by overlapping and lagging timelines of the rapidly developing society and its historical oppressions; the complex sensations of alienation, awkwardness, and attachment are essential aspects. She uses and explores various methods, such as mimicking, accumulating contemporary byproducts and residues, and transforming them into variant masses of the medium while oscillating between the digital and corporeal realms. Choi aims to dissolve the boundaries of conventional/colonial perspectives by eliciting feelings of disorientation, shapeshifting into multibody beings, and inviting sincere superstitious beliefs. Choi has exhibited at LUX, London; Doosan Galery, New York; Art Sonje, Seoul; MMCA Seoul, Busan Biennale 2018, amongst others.
