안예담 Ann, Yedam
EN
Yedam Ann is an artist based in Berlin. Her works delve into modes of movement, power relations rooted in identity within architectural structures and city environments. She reconstructs the ways in which individuals and spaces function as utilitarian materials within vast structures, thereby questioning the sensory and political relationships that humans form with space.
She challenges and deconstructs quintessential design and placeness. Her artistic research frequently examines urban landscapes in the context of technology and digital environments, often addressing essentialized identities and the museumification of cities and humanity. Her interventions into social dynamics are often translated into a cross-material practice involving spatial installations, video works, and performance.

Yedam Ann ist eine Künstlerin, die in Berlin und Seoul lebt und arbeitet. Ihre Arbeiten tauchen ein in die Dynamiken von Bewegung und Machtverhältnissen, die in Identitäten verwurzelt sind, innerhalb architektonischer Strukturen und urbaner Umgebungen. Sie rekonstruiert, wie Individuen und Räume als funktionale Materialien innerhalb gewaltiger Strukturen agieren und hinterfragt dabei die sensorischen und politischen Beziehungen zu hinterfragen, die der Mensch mit Raum eingeht.
Sie stellt den archetypischen Design- und Placeness in Frage und dekonstruiert diese. Ihre künstlerische Forschung untersucht häufig urbane Landschaften im Kontext von Technologie und digitalen Umfeldern und befasst sich oft mit der Essenzialisierung von Identitäten sowie der Museumifizierung von Städten und der Menschheit. Ihre Interventionen in soziale Dynamiken werden häufig in eine cross-material Praxis übersetzt, die räumliche Installationen, Video und Performance umfasst.

안예담은 베를린과 서울을 기반으로 활동하는 작가이다. 그녀의 작업은 건축적 구조와 도시 환경 내에서 이동의 방식과 정체성에 뿌리를 둔 권력 관계를 탐구한다. 그녀는 개인과 공간이 거대 구조 내에서 기능적 물질로서 작동하는 방식을 재구성하며, 이를 통해 인간이 공간과 맺는 감각적, 정치적 관계를 다시 질문한다.
그녀는 전형적인 디자인과 장소성에 도전하고 해체한다. 그녀의 예술적 연구는 기술과 디지털 환경의 맥락에서 도시 풍경을 탐색하며, 요약된 정체성과 도시 및 인류의 박물관화 문제를 다룬다. 사회적 역학에 대한 그녀의 개입은 공간 설치, 영상 작업, 퍼포먼스를 포함한 교차 재료적 실천으로 번역된다.
