Jung-Ah Kim is an artist-curator, researcher, and PhD candidate whose work bridges media and textiles through conceptual and material experimentation and re-enactment. She uses weaving as an entry point to explore broader questions of technology, media, and culture. Her research engages with the history of computing, feminist media critique, and the politics of remembering and cultural amnesia embedded in diasporic objects such as a Korean carpet discovered in a Canadian museum. Through the reconstruction of an ancient loom, she examines the tacit knowledge produced through hands-on creation and the intersections of craft, technology, and cultural memory.
