Geumhyung Jeong - Under Construction

A strange dance between vulnerability and mechanics.

With dance, sculptures and video installations, Geumhyung Jeong explores the boundary between human and machine. Jeong constructs robot-like figures from medical dummies, skeletal models and technical components that move awkwardly, almost humanly.

The result is a strange choreography of vulnerability and mechanics. Jeong’s figures are not perfect robots; instead, they reveal human limits like failure, desire, and the search for connection. With a background in choreography and a fascination for technology and objects, she transforms the space into a creative workshop in which the sculptures truly come to life. Under Construction offers an honest, confrontational look at how technology shapes us in a world driven by constant progress.

The idea of building the body function of the [robot]sculptures started with copying human movements, but their movements show how obviously machine they are. I find it cute when they try to move like humans but in their own way - Choreographer Geumhyung Jeong
