Grounded in the premise that perfect mutual understanding is impossible, the work stages moments in which voices fail to reach and intentions slip away, inviting the audience to inhabit ambiguity rather than resolve it.
Language, ( ), and I
2023. 03
The impact of language on the self—and the emotions it stirs—is, ironically, one of the most difficult things to articulate. This is precisely why I chose to explore it through my artistic practice. For those who live between languages, the experience of communication is inevitably different from that of those who inhabit only one.
What is the relationship between language and the self? How do human connections take shape when we move through a non-native tongue? I hope this work invites you to linger with these questions.

The work investigates asymmetries of meaning and discrepancies in interpretation produced within contemporary communication environments. Through performance, sound art, and installation, it constructs intentionally incomplete communicative situations.
Recent projects engage with presence in natural environments and the disappearance of sound. By staging situations in which utterances fade or are absorbed, the work suggests that not being understood does not necessarily lead to negative outcomes. It explores the possibility of relationality that persists without the imperative of knowing.
한국어
현대 커뮤니케이션 환경에서 생성되는 의미의 비대칭성과 해석의 불일치를 탐구한다. 퍼포먼스, 사운드 아트, 설치예술을 매개로 의도적으로 불완전한 소통 환경을 설계한다.
최근 작업에서는 자연 환경 속에서의 존재와 소리의 소멸을 다루었다. 발화가 사라지거나 흡수되는 상황을 통해, 이해되지 않음이 반드시 부정적 결과로 귀결되지 않음을 제시한다. ‘모르는 채로 존재하는 관계성’이 가능한지 탐색하고 있다.
日本語
現代のコミュニケーション環境において生成される意味の非対称性と解釈の不一致を探究する。パフォーマンス、サウンドアート、インスタレーションを媒介とし、意図的に不完全なコミュニケーション環境を設計する。
最近の作品では、自然環境における存在と音の消滅を扱った。発話が消失あるいは吸収される状況を通して、「わからなさ」が必ずしも否定的な帰結へと至るわけではないことを提示する。「わからないままで存在する関係性」が可能であるかを探っている。
