Yunchul Kim (born 1970, Seoul) is a South Korean artist and electroacoustic music composer whose transdisciplinary practice spans installation, sculpture, sound, drawing, and writing. His work investigates foundational questions of matter and materiality, and explores matter as an active agent in the construction of events—an ontological approach he terms transmattering
He studied music composition at Chugye University of Arts in Seoul, Korea before expanding his practice into installation and then earned a master's degree in audio visual media from the Academy of Media Arts Cologne in Cologne, Germany where he started transdisciplinary experimentation that intersects physics, engineering, and philosophy.[1]
Following his studies in Seoul and Europe, Kim established Studio Locus Solus in Seoul, leading a research-driven practice combining artistic creation and scientific experimentation. He served as the chief researcher of the Mattereality group at the Korea Institute for Advanced Study[2] and was a member of the collaborative projects Fluid Skies and Liquid Things at the University of Applied Arts Vienna.[3]
Exhibitions
[edit]Kim represented Korea at the 59th Venice Biennale in 2022 and envisioned a labyrinthine universe of entangled agencies.[4] He has also exhibited internationally in exhibitions such as Yokohama Triennale 2020;Copenhagen Contemporary; 14th Mercosur Biennale ; CERN - Science Gateway;Science Gallery Melbourne; CCCB; ZKM and KUMU
Awards
[edit]Throughout his career, Kim has awarded an Honorary Mention in Interactive Art at Ars Electronica in 2022; the Collide International Award at CERN Collide Award in 2016, including residencies at CERN and FACT Liverpool; the Third Prize at VIDA 15.0 by the Telefónica Foundation in 2013; further Honorary Mentions from Ars Electronica in 2006 and Transmediale in 2004; and the Media Artist Award from North Rhine-Westphalia in 2005.[5][6][7][8][9] [10]
