Sun Park is an artist and cultural worker working with moving image and language exploring the remnants of "forced poetics" within a neocolonial context. She engages with translation and improvisation as vessels for feminist remembering. Currently, she is interested in creative power of destruction and destructive power of creation.

bio after Gloria Evangelina Anzaldúa 
[this biography was written during ‘Writing About Me’, a workshop led by Taylor Le Melle]

I’m an artist, daughter of 박 and 손. My Zodiac is the ill-fated White Horse that returns every 60 years. When I’m 60 I will bless fellow baby white horses and bring chaos but for now I want to be in silence, make films and buy more books. In my spare time I read fragrance reviews and water my plants.
