JiYoon Park is an artist filmmaker who makes creative non-fiction cinema. She explored temporality through short films ‘The Way We Wait’(2020) and ‘Once Upon a Time’(2020). And through ‘Like You Know It All’(2021) and ‘Out of Place’(2022), she attempted to depict the unfathomable vastness of human mind. 

Juxtaposition and recontextualisation is her main filmmaking style. By capturing surreal and unfamiliar moments, she tried to find hidden and unexpected meanings in our daily lives. Her film works have been shown worldwide in video channels such as NOWNESS, and at numerous Oscar & BAFTA qualifying film festivals, including AFI Docs, IDFA, Ji.hlava IDFF and the Open City Documentary Festival.
