About
Wonjoo Gu is a Korean curator, writer and photographer based in London. Her practice explores diaspora and identity, and the experience of living between South Korea and the United Kingdom, drawing on her MA research into collectivism and individualism in both countries. She graduated from the MA Culture, Criticism and Curation at Central Saint Martins, UAL, in 2025. As a writer, she interviews artists and writes on the social pressures that shape creative lives. Her photography captures candid moments of urban life, from the intimate to the everyday, and extends to documenting artists’ studios and working spaces.
