Yongwoon Shin | Media Artist & CGI Photographer
Yongwoon Shin is a media artist who utilizes holes, fiction, and academically established magical phenomena to visualize the possibilities within the impossible through objects that are considered trivial in our daily lives. As a former member of the South Korean national team in magic, he incorporates magical mechanisms and phenomena into digital works, creating works that resemble magic only imaginable through fantasy. He holds a Bachelor's degree in Magic Studies from Dong-A Health University, a Bachelor's degree in Media and Film Studies from Korea National Open University, and is currently pursuing a Master's degree in Cultural Convergence Technology Cooperative Program at Changwon National University. Based in Korea, he is deeply immersed in experimental convergent media art that combines culture, arts, and technology.
His representative series, "FICTION: The Hole" series, began with exhibitions in major art museums and galleries in Gimhae, including Gimhae Cultural Foundation Yoon Seul Art Museum(Korea, 2023), West Gimhae Cultural Center(Korea, 2022), Changwon Cultural Foundation 3ㆍ15 Art Center(Korea, 2023), House of Gyeongnam Provincial Governer(Korea, 2023), Docent Gallery(Korea, 2023), Jinyoung Station Railway Museum(Korea, 2023) and Shin-A Art Center(Korea, 2023). Furthermore, his works have been showcased internationally through exhibitions such as Double Interface (Seoul, 2023) by Art Innovation in Italy and Floating Pixels (USA, 2023), The Pixels Show (USA, 2024), continuing his diverse artistic activities both domestically and internationally.
In 2024, he was selected as an artist at NKF 2024 (NFT KOREA FESTIVAL) and won the Gaudi World Foundation NFT Art Award.
