Minyoung Kim focuses on how image and information technology distort, create, and commodify the everyday sensory experiences of individuals. She produces simulative apparatuses that blend various synesthetic media including video, simulation, XR, performance, and contemporary dance to explore the interactions mediated by today's technological environment, such as chance and reproduction, human and non-human, experience and memory, and the relationship between existence and the virtual.


김민영은 이미지와 정보 기술이 개인의 일상 감각을 왜곡, 생성, 상품화하는 것에 주목한다. 영상, 시뮬레이션, XR, 퍼포먼스, 현대 무용 등 다양한 공감각적 매체를 혼합한 시뮬레이션 장치를 제작하여 오늘날 기술환경이 매개하는 우연과 재현, 인간과 비인간, 경험과 기억, 실존과 가상의 관계를 탐구한다.
