Biography
Sora Park, an installation artist based in Seoul, grounds her work in the discipline of sculpture. The artist's interests lie in the social issues that emerge within the realm of contemporary digital media, within arenas such as social media and the metaverse. She pays particular attention to phenomena intensified and spotlighted by advancements in science and technology. Her recent projects involve conceptualising the possible circumstances, personalities, or products that may arise in a future world where current social issues have become more intensified. She visualises such concerns through various media, including sculpture, video, and installation.
