Black Sun X : Casper, Witch, and Handstanderus traces the trajectory of catastrophes from their nascence to the present. It weaves together fragments of loosely connected narratives under 'Black Sun X' that implies constantly swelling catastrophes. This work consists of three narratives; Casper who was a beloved comic character in popular culture, Witch-hunt that occurred during the transition period between feudalism and capitalism after the wake of Black Death (and still remains in today's disturbing situation), and 'Handstanderus' who is a group of people trying to find new ways of thinking through plants.
