Kyuin Baik is an interdisciplinary artist from Seoul, South Korea, primarily working in photography. Her work begins in the gap between the social identity and the inner identity of herself. Throughout various mediums, She traces the ways how identity is inherited, perceived, adjusted, and remembered. Her work stays in the unstable space where identity is not fixed but continuously adjusted, preserved, and remade.
