Lim Minouk has created works that push beyond the boundary of different media, deepening the scope of questions derive from language, historic loss, and ruptures. Her work examines the marginalization ensued from the rapid socioeconomic development and the consequent displacement of communities. Lim works with a diverse set of mediums and in a variety of scales: large-scale installations combining photographs and videos with elements that produce tactile sensations, theatrical works incorporating songs, performances, and participatory tours, as well as pieces produced through the subtle active participation of viewers.
