Biography
Kim Eunseol is an artist who chronicles unheard sounds through the body and senses. Questioning the act of hearing and the essence of existence, she explores the thresholds between sound, language, and perception. Her sensory inquiries move beyond the expansion of hearing to address accessibility, invisible linguistic structures, and the hierarchies that shape communication. Through drawing, installation, video, and performance, she reconstructs the relationship between sensation and language, transforming sensory differences into new possibilities for perception and dialogue. Her works have been exhibited at the MMCA, Busan MoCA, SeMA, and Arko.
