I am a South Korea-born, UK-based cross-disciplinary artist, researcher, and educator currently teaching at the Royal College of Art in London.

My practice engages with urban space, psychogeography, walking, and the public sphere, through postcolonial, non-Western, and feminist perspectives. Working site-specifically across cities and countries, I investigate how place is constructed, remembered, and contested—often by uncovering situated knowledges that disrupt dominant historical and spatial narratives.

Utilising a wide range of media—including painting, public art, installation, sculpture, digital print, sound, film, and text—I explore how spatial narratives, embodied memory, and temporality are inscribed in the built environment. Much of my artwork emerges from lived experience and movement through space, where perception and presence become mediums for critical reflection.

My current research project explores the interlinked histories of Korea, Japan and the UK through: (living) archive and museum studies; architecture, art and technology. By engaging with East Asian colonial histories, I aim to reveal overlooked spatial and cultural knowledges embedded within sites and structures.
