Exploring Layers of Memory Through Everyday Objects:
A Conversation with Doyeon Son
Last Updated 24.10.31
Opacity, Offer-city
Opacity, Over-city, by queer artists Dohu and Yumok, explores queerness as an alternative to the binary divide between normality and abnormality within the ambiguous landscape of the city. As spaces where diverse identities coexist, collide, and continuously transform, cities become sites for imagining broader ways of living. To express this idea, I created digital collages by combining the artists' objects with images gathered throughout the research process, applying glitch techniques to blur boundaries between dominant and marginalized spaces.

K-Art Lab
Time travel through Korea’s Landscapes
Created motion graphics for an XR exhibition. Beginning with archival and cultural heritage imagery, I digitally reconstructed the visuals using layering, collage, and glitch techniques to create immersive compositions. The resulting motion graphics transform historical materials into dynamic visual experiences that bridge cultural heritage with contemporary digital media. Click img to enlarge
SAMANTHA ZINE
This is the visual identity for an event celebrating the second launch of SAMANTHA Zine, combining a queer party and talk programme. Developed through close collaboration and ongoing conversations with Samantha, the project translates a shared understanding of queer culture into bold yet nuanced visual language. Centered on queer solidarity, open expressions of sexuality, and the exploration of women's sexual agency, the visuals celebrate visibility, empowerment, and community. Click img to enlarge
Urban glitch
Urban Glitch explores the contemporary city as a layered media environment where visual, sonic, and social elements overlap rather than as a fixed architectural structure. Drawing from experiences of living between Seoul and London, the project examines how unfamiliar and familiar urban landscapes continuously reshape perception and identity. By layering images and sounds collected from both cities and applying digital collage and glitch techniques, it creates an ambiguous sensory landscape where boundaries dissolve, reimagining the city as a fluid interface shaped through memory, movement, and relationships. Co-direct, sound design by Junhee Kim.
