Wonhae Hwang South Korea, b. 1989

68projects presents the joint exhibition "Skin and Nerve" by Sunjeong Hwang and Wonhae Hwang, developed during their 2025 residency in Berlin. Bringing together video, sound, and painting, the exhibition explores how contemporary image cultures oscillate between technological immersion and material resistance. Sunjeong Hwang’s practice spans video, sound, generative systems, and installation. Her works construct immersive environments that draw on AI, field recording, and speculative interfaces, redistributing perception across ecological, technological, and non-human networks. While these systems evoke visions of expanded connectivity and symbiosis, they also expose the underlying structures of control embedded in digital interfaces.

In contrast, Wonhae Hwang approaches the contemporary image through painting. Rooted in urban observation, architectural fragments, and screen-based imagery, her works emerge through layered analog and digital processes. Glass façades, screen tones, and painterly gestures collide to produce fractured surfaces marked by opacity, distortion, and visual fatigue. Rather than offering painting as a retreat from digital culture, her works reveal it as a medium equally shaped by saturation and pressure.
