TJ Shin (b. 1993, Seoul) is an artist and writer based in Los Angeles. Their multimedia practice, spanning film, video, installation, and sculpture, explores how structures of power organize the perception of form and the formalization of ideology. Research-based and often site-specific, their recent work interrogates spatial and temporal systems within geopolitical logic, examining how information is made intelligible, knowledge is distributed, and events are historicized—while also considering the potential for rupture.
Shin has exhibited at the MIT List Visual Arts Center, Queens Museum, Buffalo Institute of Contemporary Arts, Princeton University, Montclair State University Galleries, Doosan Gallery, Knockdown Center, and more. Their writing has been published in Active Cultures, Artforum, Asia Art Archive, the Brooklyn Rail, Mousse Magazine, and the Vera List Center for Art and Politics. They have been invited as artist-in-residence at Princeton University, Indiana University, University at Buffalo, Recess, Wave Hill, Folly Tree Arboretum, Banff Centre, and more. Their works have been reviewed in publications including Artforum, Art in America, ArtPapers, ArtAsiaPacific, C Magazine, and The New York Times.
