Biography
Minjung Kim’s practice explores the structure of socio-cultural contexts associated with the materiality and optical characteristics of moving image, spanning across theaters and gallery spaces. Her works, including films and video installations, focus on capturing and critically examining cultural, natural, and social phenomena related to media, particularly how 'standards' or 'norms' lead to the exclusion of certain aspects, referring to the formal properties of Structure Film such as depth of field, length of film strips, light, shutters, and mirrors.

Biography
Boyun Jang works on recreating the memory and history of existence through various approaches using photographic images as materials. In the early stages of her work, she was fascinated by the fundamental act of "seeing" inherent in the medium of photography and its significance in reproduction. Subsequently, she focused on the effect of loss inherent in photographic images, immersing herself in vanished moments of the past, traveling to specific places, and documenting the journey of reproducing the subjects of images while simultaneously writing about them. Starting from 2020, her work has expanded to include directing documentary video works involving actors and expanding the scope of her work from photographic images to video media through multi-channel editing.
