The National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea, said Wednesday it has selected Christine Sun Kim as the participating artist for “MMCA X LG OLED Series 2026.” 

Kim works across sound and language, drawing, performance and video to examine how communication is structured and how social relationships are formed. Her work treats sound as a social system closely tied to power, institutions and norms, and uses drawing and graphic notation — a system that translates sound into visual language — to explore the unseen rules of communication and how language functions. 

For “MMCA X LG OLED Series 2026,” she will present a new large-scale video installation based on animation. The exhibition runs from July 31 to Nov. 29 at MMCA Seoul.
