In the middle of Seoul, there are places that went off the linear orbit of time, the past or the present. < People who disappeared, the world that didn’t, or vice versa> captures the images of space-time in such places as 'Bada Theater' that opened 40 years ago and closed in 2010, 'Jungang Apartment', a multipurpose apartment block built in 1950s, Print Alley in Euljiro, Clock Alley, etc. Based on the idea of the ‘will of a place’ that a place has its unique way of life and coexists with other places, each with its own time and flow, the video depicts the sense of movement and energy of the things that exist in intangible forms.
People who disappeared, the world that didn’t, or vice versa
공중 조각

It is a work that gazes at the distance between stillness and movement, between scene and scene, between different entities and time and space. It pays attention to the usage, movements, and possibility of variations of the diverse 'distances' that exist between them. If it takes a long time to move from one scene to the next, and if there are things that can only be seen after some time or from a distance, the 'time-distance' is necessary for an image to appear and disappear. What if this work captures this 'time-distance'? When a scene/image contains a single space-time, it might enable different time-space, objects, matter, non-matter in a far distance to meet, even for a brief time. Based on such ideas, the work connects one scene to the next, the voices of anonymous speakers to another. It captures the distance and the sense of distance of the things that do not stay and cannot be reached. By doing so, it seeks possible formless connections and temporary coexistence.
