Kimsooja

Kimsooja, real name Kim Soo-ja, is a South Korean and American media artist living and working in New York and Seoul.

After studying art in Seoul, Kimsooja studied lithography at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, then apprenticed at the New York Museum of Modern Art.

Her early works used fabric, which quickly became her favorite medium: the artist began creating large textile collages. In her work, Kimsooja combines performance, film, photography and installation with the use of textiles, light and sound. The artist explores issues relating to the human condition, as well as addressing issues of aesthetics, culture, politics and the environment.
