Ahyun (Aha) Cho
Ahyun Cho is a multidisciplinary artist based in Seoul (KR). Beginning with video arts, her works have expanded into interactive works across video games, XR, and performance, creating environments that foster new physical and sensory experiences.
She is researching alternative controllers and interfaces that inspire individuals to move their bodies in more personalized ways. By proposing inefficient and unconventional actions, her works examine how traditional digital input systems have influenced our physical behaviors, often shaping them around the ideals of efficiency and standardization.
Her work frequently draws on the binary logic of digital environments to uncover the dichotomous structures embedded in modern society. She focuses on creating systems and narratives that transform opposing concepts into interconnected relationships.
조아현
조아현은 비디오 게임, XR, 퍼포먼스 등 관객이 새로운 신체적 감각 경험을 할 수 있는 인터랙션 작업을 진행한다. 표준화되고 효율성 중심으로 설계된 기존의 디지털 입력 방식을 벗어나, 익숙하지 않은 행위를 제안하는 대안적 컨트롤 방식과 인터페이스를 실험한다.
작업은 주로 디지털 환경의 이진 신호체계를 활용하여 현대 사회가 직면한 이분법적 구조를 드러내고, 이를 상호 연결된 관계로 재구성하는 시스템과 내러티브를 구축하는 데 초점을 맞춘다. 상반된 개념들이 교차하고 충돌하며, 새로운 의미를 생성하는 과정을 시각화하고 체험화한다. 물리적 환경과 디지털 매체 사이에 새로운 상호작용 방식을 구축하며, 이분법 사고를 신체적 감각으로 체감하고 대응하도록 하는 놀이 방식을 탐구한다.
