Soyun Park: as futuristic as it gets

 

Soyun Park is an interdisciplinary artist, designer and educator from South Korea living in The Hague. She is interested in the question of how technology influences human functioning, from the individual level (physical movement and relationships) to the social level (architecture and politics).

 

Often in collaboration, her work takes the shape of films, installations, and audiovisual performances. By making use of new media and technology, her work investigates the border between the digital world and reality which is getting thinner every day. Leading a community-driven studio RGBdog, she also teaches at educational institutions globally with her passion towards education.

 

She has exhibited and performed at media art festivals, cultural venues and film festivals including for example Rewire Festival (NL), Nederland Fotomuseum (NL), Ars Electronica (AT), CTM Festival (DE), UNM Festival (DK), and iii workspace (NL).

 

Her co-directed film ‘Wunderkammer 10.0’ has been awarded a Special Jury Prize at the Jeonju International Film Festival in 2022, and she has been selected for Faces of We are Europe in the same year.

 

Soyun will speak at the Forward Festival Amsterdam in May. Next to her, you will be able to hear Creatives like Eva Cremers, Sander Plug, Dada Projects and many more.
