Short Biography
Born 1971, in Daegu/Lives and works in Seoul
Rho Jae Oon produces meta-narrative with drifting images and sound archived from the web. His work starts with meticulous research and the archiving of image clips and sound files, which he appropriates and recomposes into his own narrative. His narratives never directly describe a specific context, but allude to a context’s socio-political issues. His final web ‘publications’ take the form of loose random sequences divided in chapters, often recalling sci-fi novels, and can be compared to contemporary literature, music, and painting.
