Multidisciplinary Communication Designer
I am a communication designer and researcher from South Korea. My current research explores diverse perceptions of time that are largely invisible in contemporary society. Disassembling time as a means of understanding the universal element that structures one’s life and micro-decisions, she desires to give people agency to make decisions about using their own time and role in an ecological sense.

👩🔬 Research Questions:
- Does immersion within a linear, technologically mediated, anthropocentric, and quantified perception of time, such as minutes, hours, days, and weeks, blind us from seeing the ecological and social impacts of our living?
- What values and priorities does our current relationship with time reinforce or perpetuate?
- How might different understandings and experiences of time allow us to perceive and act differently in our world?
- Could a different attunement to time, as experienced by other creatures and cultures, help us conceive more ethical futures not only for ourselves, but for all beings, and our shared habitat?
