Naeun Kang is interested in exploring human conditions: irrationality, fluctuating hormones, social constructs, and interpersonal relations, fluctuating mood, the coexistence of humor and despair.
Her subject varies from daily conundrums and folkloric ancient tales to imagined scenarios.many of her works have their starting point in personal memories, which are reconstructed with fragments of popular culture, mythologies, literature into visual metaphors. Through works Kang questions the way we examine our surroundings and its relations. Her most recent works delved into female inner lives and under-represented female narrative, fluctuating hormones, gender roles, grotesque bodily troubles, in hopes of contextualizing fresh grounds for discussing intersectionality and vulnerability.
