Tacit Group
Tacit Group is an audio-visual group founded in 2008 with a vision of creating new art for the 21st century. Based in Seoul but working globally, the group comprises composer Jaeho Chang and electronic musician Gazaebal (Lee Jinwon). With audio-visual art as its core content, Tacit Group has expanded in a contemporary and experimental way in multimedia performances, interactive installations, and music installations. Representative works such as Hun-Min-Jeong-Ak, Game Over, Morse Kung Kung, combine a systematic worldview weaved through intuitive materials and technology inspired by normal everyday activities such as games and text chatting. In particular, works that utilize the beauty and communication power of characters are among their most striking.
Tacit Group have played in a number prestigious venues such as the Lincoln Center in New York, Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Korea, Nam June Paik Art Center, Aarhus Festival in Denmark, Stereolux in Nantes in France, NYU Abu Dhabi, and Space (the most historical architect group in Korea).
