Korean
Mooni Perry
b.1990- Korea
Mooni Perry’s artistic practice is informed by her investigations of human-animal studies, veganism, and (Asian-)feminism. Her research critically explores the intersections between these subjects and finds artistic expression in film-based works and installations. Her videos feature references to Korean poetry and theory as well as the use of vocal or instrumental performances. Perry combines interview sequences and documentary material with ambiguous representations of 3D-animated characters, thereby creating multi-layered video works. She creates a story that crosses time and space from the perspective of East Asia, by connecting the dots in stories that seem unrelated to one another.
In 2021, Perry was awarded Ars viva prize, Kulturkreis der deutschen Wirtschaft im BDI. Her solo shows include «Kumho Young Artist»(Kumho Museum of Art, 2022), Binlang Xishi (CR Collective, 2021)and group show include «The Uncanny world»(2022, Museum of Contemporary Art Busan), «ARKO Art & Tech Festiva 2022: The Fable of Net in Earth»(2022, ARKO Art Center), «The Raw»(2022, Incheon Art Platform), «BPA//Exhibition»(2021, KW Institute for Contemporary Art). Together with Hanwen Zhang, she launched the online platform AFSAR (Asian Feminist Studio for Art and Research) in 2021, undertaking various projects in collaboration with researchers, activists, and artists.
