Test Project 03 — goosohee

Sohee Goo is a visual artist based in Seoul and London, working mainly with photography and installation. Her practice is rooted in East Asian aesthetics and philosophical thought, reflecting on the nature of perception, value, and interpretation.

Using the everyday yet symbolic object of the egg, she creates quiet but deep reflections on life. Through the act of continually seeking stability amid uncertainty, and through repetition and subtle variation, she elevates the ordinary into something poetic. Her work invites viewers to consider the anxieties, changes, and questions of existence that appear in daily life.

She also develops works that digitally transform and distort images of nature, reconstructing them into three-dimensional forms. These altered landscapes explore the boundary between the real and the artificial, unsettling familiar ways of seeing and questioning fixed frameworks of perception.

A simple and direct question runs through her work: “What do you think?” With this question, she encourages viewers to look inward, allowing space within her refined works for introspection, depth of thought, and inner resonance.

Axis: Drooping and Rising Again

2024

Duo exhibition
LCDC Seoul 3F Doors, Seoul

Shaped by environmental and genetic factors, our emotions may sink into an endless abyss, drift weightlessly into the air, change direction faster than the speed of light, or vanish before we can even locate where they are.

Perhaps we are wandering within an orbit of emotions that circles endlessly in every direction. This exhibition begins with a question: Before we are swept away and lose ourselves forever in this phenomenon, might we need a central axis to which we can return?

Because the spiraling orbit of emotions cannot be precisely measured, Goo Sohee maps its pull and release through persistent observations of the egg, exploring countless perspectives that define both instability and comfort. Meanwhile, Ahn Shinwoo weaves nets through repetitive bodily gestures, casting them into the swelling river of anxiety to retrieve moments of steadiness—together charting the orbit of emotions that droop from and rise back toward the axis.
