Hyun-Suk Seo is an artist and theorist working on cinema, video art, performance, and interdisciplinary arts.
His performance projects often aim to invite audience members to reinvent their own memories as well as senses.
Heterotopia(Seoul, 2010/11), Desire Paths(Yongin, 2011), The Divine Prostitution of the Soul(Seoul, 2011), Heterochrony(Seoul, 2012), and Resolutely Autumn Wind(Yokohama, 2013) utilize simple everyday devices, such as goggles, earplugs, or audio recorders, to re-sculpt the audience experiences and to interrogate the limits and conditions of “theatrical engagement.”
They take place on sites loaded with architectural traces of modernity, which is another ongoing subject of interest in his creative and textual works. His video and performance works have been shown at Festival Bom, Gwangju Design Biennale, Venice
Architecture Biennale, Clermont-Ferrand Film Festival, and Canal+, among others.
He is the author of the books, Monster/Father/Freud(2011) and The Art of the Future(upcoming), and is the co-editor of Ob.scene, a magazine on interdisciplinary creative practices.
