Wednesday Kim is a Korean-born interdisciplinary artist working across video, print, sculpture, installation, and digital ritual. Her work explores trauma, motherhood, and memory through the lens of digital hauntology—where forgotten search data, screenshots, and erased histories return as emotional residue. Drawing from Korean folklore and internet subculture, she reimagines the Dokkaebi as a glitch-born spirit emerging from data remnants and e-waste. Wednesday Kim is an interdisciplinary artist and co-founder of De:Formal Online.

I've been a proud outsider artist since recording my first music at 10 and creating my first visual work at 16. I find that having multiple outlets allows for more free-flowing expression (no doubt an influence from Fluxus and Dada). I work in photography, mixed mediums, music, sound collage and poetry.
