Yohan Han's artistic practice encompasses both sculpture and performance, traversing a variety of creative mediums. His deliberate interventions in communal structures and systemic spaces teeter between lighthearted inventiveness and deep introspection. Critically examining the profound changes driven by our escalating reliance on technology, Han aims to uncover the foundational facets of human embodiment through pure manifestations of behavior, dance, and gesture. His practice prominently encourages dialogue, using choreographic designs and interactive tools to reveal the inherent performative capacities within sculptural and functional arenas.

Through these innovative works, Han offers incisive reflections on the sensorial continuum of an existence bridging the palpable with the digital.
