Hong Jinhwon, Good afternoon, Good evening and Good night - bug report, 2024. 4 channel video, color, sound. 13 min 38 sec. Supported by the 13th Seoul Mediacity pre-Biennale. Courtesy of the artist
Good Afternoon, Good Evening, Good Night 2.0 (2021), which was represented by the 11th Seoul Mediacity Biennale , comprises an automated system that provides subscribers with information from all over the world that has been excluded from YouTube’s algorithm via the web platform destroy.codes. This latest artwork is a “bug report” that critically reviews and corrects errors of existing works, which imagined a world without control through images liberated from monopoly and ownership. In so doing, information related to anonymous footage collected in the recent past is reproduced using a generative algorithm, a “manifesto” calling for hard-working and independence is revised and unclassified photo data is reorganized into a moving image.
Hong Jinhwon (b. 1980, Seoul)
Hong Jinhwon observes and intervenes in the power relations that suffuse photography and images, primarily using media such as photography, film and web programming. He has held solo exhibitions including melting ice cream (d/p, Seoul, 2021) and Random Forest (Artspace Pool, Seoul, 2018), in addition to co-creating the art space Here Now, the photo distribution platform The Scrap, and overseeing projects such as docs, a press photo-related project. Hong’s work has been introduced in numerous group exhibitions and film festivals and he participated in the 11th Seoul Mediacity Biennale, One Escape at a Time.
