양숙현, Sookyun Yang (b. 1982, KR)

미디어 아티스트 양숙현은 현재의 기술 미디어를 ‘물질’로 정의하며 물리적 영역과 데이터 영역을 연결하고 조작 하는 것에 관심을 갖는다. 이를 기반으로 동시대 기술 환경과 시스템이 생산하고 파생시킨 개체와의 경험을 매체와 형식의 제한없이 풀어낸다. 신체성을 기반한 감각, 물리적 공간 변환을 통한 경계 흐리기, 기술 알고리즘이 생성하는 글리치 등 다양한 주제를 통해 기술이 환경이 된 시대에 대한 지속적인 질문을 던진다.

Sookyun Yang is a media artist exploring the evolving relationships between humans, technology, and non-human entities since 2010. Her work investigates the intersections of speculative simulation, algorithmic errors, and digital materiality, questioning how contemporary technological environments shape existence and perception. Utilizing various media such as wearables, interactive media installations, and AI-generated imagery, Yang examines the physicality of data-driven ecosystems. Her recent projects focus on the transformation of human identity into machine-readable formats, critically reflecting on the biases embedded in artificial intelligence while simultaneously interrogating the nature of human existence. By integrating Eastern material sensibilities with emerging digital systems, Yang challenges the dominant narratives of modernity and explores alternative ontologies of being. Through her artistic practice, she reinterprets human existence within rapidly evolving technological landscapes, offering new perspectives on materiality, data, and the expanding boundaries between the organic and the synthetic.
