Details | Artist Michael Joo employs myriad materials and rigorous engagement with technological processes throughout his practice. As a recipient of the Smithsonian Artist Research Fellowship in 2012, he studied the annual flight of the iconic red-crowned crane to the Korean Demilitarized Zone and used advanced digital reproduction tools to create stunning, large-scale works that were exhibited in Perspectives: Michael Joo. Since then, he has exhibited major installations that continue to reflect on the intersection between technology, perception, and the natural environment. Join curator Carol Huh in conversation with the artist about how the marriage of art and science continues to evolve in his work and learn more about his exciting upcoming projects. This program is offered as part of The Studio, the National Museum of Asian Art’s contemporary art virtual space, and is part of a series in which artists reflect on how they have engaged with objects and ideas from the museum.
