Test Project 03 — goosohee

Sohee Goo is a visual artist based between Seoul and London, working across photography and installation. Her practice draws from East Asian aesthetics and philosophical inquiry, meditating on the nature of perception, value, and interpretation

Using ordinary yet symbolically charged objects—most notably the egg—Goo constructs quiet yet profound reflections on life. Through repetition and nuanced variation, she elevates the mundane into the poetic, inviting contemplation on fragility, transformation, and the cyclical nature of existence.

Alongside this, she engages with natural imagery, digitally transforming and distorting it into three-dimensional forms. These manipulated landscapes question the boundary between the real and the artificial, disrupting familiar perspectives and challenging fixed ways of seeing.

A recurring thread in her work is the simple yet disarming question: “What do you think?” In posing this,
Goo turns the viewer’s gaze inward, encouraging not just interpretation, but an awareness of the very act of interpreting itself.

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.
