About

Seonbin Yun is a multidisciplinary designer based in South Korea and London. Her work in the digital realm is all about shaping and advancing speculative futures through the intricate intersection between technology, sustainability, and the human experience. It is an amalgamation of state-of-the-art technological exploration and profound ecological consciousness that encapsulates contemporary issues while considering future possibilities. By simulating and meticulously examining these futuristic concepts, she creates immersive environments that transcend traditional boundaries, allowing viewers to engage with speculative scenarios in a tangible, experiential manner.

Through her ontological approach, she attempts to answer critical questions about our future environmental viability, the potential of technological advancements, and their implications for humanity. Her creations go beyond being mere visual spectacles to become thoughtfully constructed experiences that provoke contemplation and dialogue. These environments serve as a bridge between the present and possible, providing space where people can investigate and reflect on various ways that technology could merge with sustainability towards determining our collective future.

Her work epitomises a visionary blend of art and theory by using digital tools involved in crafting narratives that are enlightening yet engaging. By making speculative futures come alive, she not only allows her audience to be observers but also participants in an ongoing conversation concerning humanity’s path forward as well as our stewardship role over the planet. Thus, through such immersive engagement, viewers are pushed toward consideration for their place within this ever-changing matrix, making this work a powerful agent towards the realisation of both awareness and change.
