Yeseul Song
Yeseul Song is a South Korean-born, NYC-based artist who uses technology, interaction, and participation as art media to uncover creative possibilities of non-visual senses and creates new sensory languages. With the belief that art needs to be accessible to everyone, she explores and occupies non-traditional public spaces as well as institutions to challenge commonly held ideas about access and accessibility of art. She’s best known for Invisible Sculptures (2018-2021), a series of non-visual experiential sculptures made of sound, warmth, air, smell, and thought.
Yeseul is an Assistant Arts Professor at New York University Tisch's Interactive Telecommunications Program & Interactive Media Arts (NYU ITP/IMA). Her teaching areas span physical computing, interactive art, and sustainable materials.
Her non-visual experiences has activated a wide range of spaces, including Clayarch Art Museum (South Korea), Smithsonian Hirshhorn Museum (D.C.), New York Live Arts (NY), PASEO (NM), Samsung Leeum Museum of Art (South Korea), and Art in Odd Places (NY). Her work has been supported by Museum of Arts and Design, Mana Contemporary, More Art, Future Imagination Fund, and Engelberg Center on Innovation Law & Policy, Embassy of the Republic of Korea's Korean Cultural Center, and more.
