Donghoon Gang is an artist and composer based in Frankfurt am Main and Seoul. He studied philosophy and composition before studying at Städelschule. His work delves into how music and sound are consumed and integrated into history and society from perspectives in musicology and psychology. He primarily blurs the boundary between visual art and music, mainly showcasing immersive and site-specific installations through acousmatic composition with multichannel audio with various mediums like a scent, sculpture, photography and video.
