Shin Gyomyung examines the relationships between humans, nature, and technology, focusing on acts of mutual observation and the forms that emerge as these relationships gradually transform. In recent works, he investigates the origins of agency in movement through the processes by which the histories and cultures of Machina Sapiens are generated. He also explores how records and memory are formed, interpreted, and absorbed.
Shin has held solo exhibitions such as Portrait of the Artist: After Lee, Il-O (KT&G Sangsangmadang, 2025), Machina Sapiens (ROY GALLERY, 2024), Lee, Il-O±Gyomyung Shin (Seoul Arts Center,2022). He has showed Machina Sapiens’ performance in KNCDC Dance x Technology Open Week (NTCK's Former Theater in Seogye-dong, 2025) and also participated in group exhibitions such as Unfold X 2025: Let Things Go (Culture Station Seoul 284, 2025), Easter Egg Hunt (Suwon Museum of Art, 2024), Busan MoCA Platform: Ingredients Mining (Busan Museum of Modern Art, 2023).
