BIOGRAPHY

Contemporary artist. Primarily works with sculpture, but her identity has become as ambiguous as modern society since she became obsessed with video technology (VR) a few years ago. She works 10-hours a day like a laborer and worries about the future while watching YouTube videos edited by algorithms. With too much anxiety, She cannot fully express thoughts through her practice, so she has been writing science fiction since a certain moment. She lives with a white mixed dog and writes a gratitude diary every single day in order to look at the world positively.
