Haegue Yang is a visual artist currently living and working in Seoul and Berlin. She combines domestic and industrial materials with sensory effects such as light and sound, to render them into installations and performative abstractions. Her works are simultaneously conceptual and sensorial, ambivalent yet revelatory, operating in the realms of politics, history, and culture.
