ANNEX vol.1: The Age of Contamination
ANNEX2025
Contribution: Artwork & Writing
ANNEX is a journal of visual culture published by the curatorial studio Annex. The theme of inaugural issue is "The Age of Contamination.” We live in a time shaped by impurity and instability. The work of creation is fluid, often strategic, and at times, contradictory. No longer defined by fixed genres or singular forms, it unfolds from connection and recomposition, movement and intersection. The creator, too, is no longer a static figure, but a constantly shifting force—molded by the conditions they navigate. "The Age of Contamination" asks how strategies of self-construction emerge within such unstable conditions, and how the boundaries of art/design might be redrawn.

Watch and Chill 3.0 Streaming Suspense
National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, MMCA Korea2023
Contribution: Writing
Operated by the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea (MMCA) for three years, Watch and Chill is a subscription based streaming platform that re-establishes the hierarchy between online experience and physical exhibition, and has been exploring an expansive curatorial methodology that complements the limitations of both.
Watch & Chill 3.0 explores the ways in which the methods of storytelling and imaging conjure immersion and suspense, bringing together the works of artists, designers, and filmmakers that experiment with the psyche of uncanny, abnormality, shape-shifting, mutable bodies, and related implications today. Shedding light on the idiosyncratic tension quested by contemporary practitioners of moving-image, the exhibition aspires to probe alternative narratives and worldings that destabilize the status quo.

Watch and Chill 2.0 Streaming Suspense
National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, MMCA Korea2022
Contribution: Writing
Watch and Chill season 2 presents a partnership with institutions in the Middle East and Europe. Working in close curatorial coordination with SAF, UAE and ArkDes, Sweden, MMCA selected each institution’s media collection and the works of artists in each region to be streamed online and to be presented as internationally touring exhibitions.
Watch and Chill 2.0: Streaming Senses shares the works by contemporary artists, designers, and creators whose practices respond to the relationship between technology and human perceptual systems, venturing beyond the flatness of the screen to evoke various forms of synesthesia.
