Dawoon Park is an artist and designer working across visual communication, material culture, and new media. She explores how knowledge takes shape through artistic practice and experimentation—particularly how tacit and situated knowledge emerge, how they differ from conventional ideas of knowledge, and how they unfold in creative processes.
Recently, she has been examining the conceptual limitations and possibilities of ‘non-arbitrary’ symbols, especially through Korean uiseong-eo and uitae-eo, or simply sound symbolism, which blur the boundaries between language and gesture. While she explores these ideas through writing, she also translates them into visual and spatial manifestations through films, installations, and performances.
