Artist Bio
Soyun Park (b. 1990) is a South Korean interdisciplinary artist, researcher, and educator based in The Hague, Netherlands. Her work studies the relationship between the political structures of media technology and the human body. She gazes at these subjects through critical and humorous perspectives, choreographing audiovisual devices that challenge the boundaries of cinema.
Investigating the power dynamics of surveillance and machine learning software embedded in society and bodies, she employs resistance, trespassing, and hacking in the act of making, using them as tools to reveal underlying predicaments. She navigates these themes with a poetic lens taking the form of videos, installations, performances, that interweaves fictional, personal, and societal narratives. 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), Jeonju International Film Festival (KR) and iii workspace (NL). Her co-directed film ‘Wunderkammer 10.0’ was awarded a Special Jury Prize at the Jeonju International Film Festival in 2022, and she was selected for Faces of We Are Europe in the same year. She’s currently a researcher at the Netherlands Film Academy in Amsterdam.
