Sojung Jun

About: Sojung Jun is an artist based in Seoul, South Korea. Working in diverse mediums including video, sound, sculpture, and publications, she is interested in creating a nonlinear space-time to awaken a new awareness of history and the present or in how the changes made in physical boundaries penetrate daily sensorial experiences. In particular, she has produced works that weave and crisscross with her personal experiences by paying attention to people standing on the boundaries amid the ruins of modernity and invisible voices. She has newly established what she has fragmented through interviews, historical materials, and narratives appropriated from classical texts, and carries out experiments that intersect personal, psychological and aesthetic factors with political ones in life.

She has held solo and group exhibitions at a number of institutions including the Leeum Museum of Art (Seoul, 2022), Sharjah Art Foundation (Sharjah, 2022), National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (Seoul, 2021), Kunstmuseum Bern (Bern, 2021), Nam June Paik Art Center (Gyeonggi-do, 2021), Atelier Hermès (Seoul, 202), Tai Kwun JC Contemporary (2020), Ottawa Art Gallery (Ottawa, 2020), Art Gallery of New South Wales (Sydney, 2019), ARKO Art Center (Seoul, 2018), Palais de Tokyo (Paris, 2017), SongEun art space (Seoul, 2017), Villa Vassilieff, (Paris, 2017), 11th Gwangju Biennale (Gwangju, 2016), Doosan Gallery (Seoul, 2015), Seoul Museum of Art (Seoul, 2015), The Cube Project Space (Taipei, 2014), The National Museum of Art, Osaka, (Osaka, 2013). She is the recipient of the Hermès Foundation Missulsang 2018, Villa Vassilieff Pernod Ricard Fellowship, Paris, France 2016 and Noon Art Prize, Gwangju Biennale 2016.
