Jung Yeondoo
Jung Yeondoo lives and works in Seoul. His creative practice focuses on photography, video and installation that involve the direct and indirect performance of his subjects, affectionately looking at human life between fiction and reality. He draws upon the everyday lives of people; as he shares his artistic concepts with those involved, he playfully explores the boundary between visual art and performance.
Jung has recently been creating a series of multi-channel video works that document the perspectives of individuals who have experienced certain social or political events in recent Asian history, including A Girl in Tall Shoes (2018), Classic and New (2018), and Noise Quartet (2019). His works have been displayed at, among others, the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul (2020); the Seoul Museum of Art (2019); the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo (2019); MAC/VAL, France (2018); and the Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe, Germany (2018).
