Guem MinJeong

Guem MinJeong handles space as a subject matter. She identifies a space from the places and objects she perceived, communicated with and experienced, and creates a new space before her audience by adding imagination. She transforms 'the space' of her own into a work of art in the form of video-installation and video-sculpture. The space in her works varies, encompassing from architectural elements such as walls, floors, windows and doors, to natural elements such as forest, trees, ocean and mountain, white-cube exhibition halls in the museums or galleries, physical space such as a historic place or building where traces of time and experiences of many have been collected and mundane objects such as furniture and devices, and books and text.
