Jongbin Park and Jae-Pyung Park are an interdisciplinary artist duo based in Berlin and Seoul.
Jongbin explores themes of migration, identity, and belonging through research-based, text-driven work within the relationship between performance and space. Jae-Pyung focuses on the mechanisms through which individuals internalize and conform to social systems, visualizing them through conceptual research and integrated visual practice. At the intersection of their individual practices, their collaboration explores the multilayered relationships between identity, space, and social structures through site-specific performance, media installation, and experimental cinema. It unfolds by deconstructing and reconfiguring narratives latent within urban spaces.
In their work, space becomes not merely a backdrop but an active agent. The cinematic frame, everyday spaces, and digital interfaces each function as performative sites, and the transition between these media becomes a central gesture—mirroring their own experiences of migration. They also focus on narratives pushed beyond institutional visibility, to untranslated languages and silenced voices, which became the core theme of their practice.
Their ongoing production, “Lost Theater”, expand the concept of performativity beyond traditional theater spaces, investigating the spatial and narrative layers within urban environments and marginalized communities.
Jongbin studied theatre directing in Seoul and completed her master’s degree in Spatial Strategies at the Weißensee Kunsthochschule Berlin. Jae-Pyung studied film, multimedia and visual arts at Sungkyunkwan University in Seoul, was a guest student for visual arts at Klasse Gallmeier at the UdK Berlin and currently works as a media artist.
