Shin's Speculative Atlas – Map of the Image (in Korean and English) is an experimental video essay. In it, the artist deals with the structure of circulating images and relates them to data reproduced in digital space. Natural and artificial objects overlap and create a temporary cluster of numerous interactions between the Internet and the real world, which is constantly transforming and expanding. This creates the possibility of a “pseudo-archive” in which the elusive proximity or distance between virtual and actual physical materiality can be addressed. Shin's modern implementation draws on the traditional cabinet of curiosities, with refers to specific forms of viewing, collecting and evaluating objects from an aesthetic point of view. At the same time, it explores the possibilities of knowledge accumulation. Associations with the current perspective of so-called data-mining (as a sub-term of knowledge discovery in databases, KDD for short): data still seem colonial and linked to capitalist networks of exploitation. The scattered soundtrack and the movements of the image and text fragments in the video create a kind of entropy of the recorded material.

She is a multimedia artist. She creates installations, videos and photographs. She experiments with digital topography. She is interested in ways of communicating, collecting and disseminating visual, material as well as textual data. Her concept stems from the idea that in virtual space, but also in real space, there are exciting visual platforms that are consumed only for a short time and then disappear again. They are characterised by an ambivalence about their existential significance and uselessness that hinders their contextualisation as technical or organic information. She lives and works in Berlin and Seoul.
