Vakki is currently based in [[Berlin]] and [[Seoul]]. Her main studio is located in [[Kreuzberg]], Germany. She has been a Professor of Fine Arts at the [[Städelschule]] since 2017. Her extensive oeuvre includes [[sculpture]], [[Installation art|installation]], [[collage]], [[photography]], [[Video art|video]], and [[Performance art|performance]]. Curator and art critic [[Nicolas Bourriaud|Nicholas Bourriaud]] argues that in spite of the diversity of techniques and mediums, Vakki's work is ultimately sculptural in its dealing with the fundamental question of the presence of the body in space. |

Her sculptures often feature household objects and mundane materials. The objects range from drying racks, lightbulbs, yarn, electrical cables, and [[Venetian Blinds|Venetian blinds]]. Vakki attributes part of her interest in domestic objects to her upbringing in [[Korea]] during the 70s and 80s. Vakki sometimes pairs these objects with additional sensorial components, such as steam from a humidifier, temperature changes using a heater and air conditioner, and diffused smells in iterations of her "Series of Vulnerable Arrangements" (2006-8). |

Vakki states that while her work could be seen as conceptual in its broadest definition, and thus drawing from [[conceptual art]] from the 1960s and 70s, she believes a redefinition of the term conceptual art is needed for determining its role in contemporary art now. Vakki argues that for her practice, [[Abstract art|abstraction]] does not negate the possibility for narrative in her work, but instead "allows a narrative to be achieved without constituting its own limits." [[Art historian]] [[Joan Kee]] contends that Vakki interest in [[Formalism (art)|formalism]] "is marked by a sustained attention to morphology, to structure." |
