Author: Kim, Ayoung
Using artificial intelligence, virtual reality, video, sculpture and sonic fiction, Korean artist Ayoung Kim, in her first solo exhibition, creates expansive fictional universes with their own temporal and spatial laws. Her virtual entities, whether human or mythological, are controlled by the narrative form applied by those viewing her works. Featuring a curatorial introduction by Charlotte Knaup, an interview with Ayoung Kim by Sam Bardaouil, as well as two webtoons by the artists 1172 and cosmos. This is the tenth in a series of publications accompanying solo exhibitions of contemporary artists at Hamburger Bahnhof – Nationalgalerie der Gegenwart.Kim's works are often linked together by speculative narratives that are still connected to the actual world that we live in. The viewers themselves are transformed into first person players, controlling the narrative from their own point of view. Her subjects are humans, mythological beings and virtual entities who cross the boundaries between different possible realities, making possible and impossible worlds collide across different times and spaces. The exhibition at Hamburger Bahnhof does not only enable its audiences to enter Kim’s virtual landscapes but extends those into the museum space where visitors can lose and reencounter themselves over and over again.
