Young-Hoon JEONG

Sculptor

Bio

‘The artist who has continued blending art and technology.’
I’m a media sculptor as well as a media artist.

For a brief self-introduction, I see myself as a first-generation multimedia artist and a starter of media sculpture. The environment and ecosystem in which the early media artists experienced media are different from those of the present. In addition, it is true that when media art was first introduced, it was an alternative and tool for art, not accepted as an independent subject. However, my generation is accompanied not only with multimedia but also with smart media in the era when the entire media such as TV, game, movie, magazine, advertising, and the Web are growing very fast. Therefore, I have been with the history of the media.

As media and technology were pluralized, the structure of art was decentralized. I believe that it was media art that would play a pivotal role in such upheaval and thus pursued media art as a medium to combine two axes of art, which are creativity and identity.

In particular, I think that in the change and growth of art, technology, society, and its system, artists can contribute to humankind and its future by making a balance among them.

Description of Artworks

“The Fuzzy Definiteness.”

This is the narrative between 'obvious' and 'faint'.
My works start with fragments of memory from a long time ago.
Everything in memory is unclear, but it matches everything.

The results created by the work clearly work positively in my identity.
The object is swallowed, the meaning is dismantled, and the narrative is reconstructed inside and outside of memory.
The fragments that have already been digested and become cells are resurrected together with the images.

The overall composition of this work is based on Korea's traditional landscape painting and portrait.
