First Draft

As you can see in the image, there is a 10’ x 10’ x 10’ dark room. On the door, there are sharply cut edges of glass and in the backside of the door, there are glass trim flowers left behind the glass blowing process. The beautiful process can be seen inside and the light only comes in through these trims. A small number of people could go in at a time with blind-folded. When they enter the room, they will follow the long and dark passage way. There are labyrinthine walls made of wooden frame covered with black fabric. They would feel like getting lost in the darkness without knowing where they are heading to. However, as they get used to the darkness, they will gradually see things. At the end of the passageway, there is an hour-long performance video surrounded by 4 speakers at every corner. Here, they can take off their blind-folds. This sound installation will enable audience to have a virtual experience of the performance video. When the video is projected on the front screen, viewers can see the rock creature struggling to find its way moving forwards and backwards. And when the light is turned on in the backside of the screen, the remnants of the process and the performance costume with its breathing sound inside will be overlapped with the performance video.

Glass Trims - Remnants of the Process
The reason I love working with glass is that even the process goes wrong or fails, sometimes it leads you to more interesting and unexpected way. So when I am working with glass, I am especially more interested in the things that go wrong. I like the clumsy and unsymmetrical shape that I make rather than perfectly symmetrical and seems perfect. Watching how glass artists work in the hot shop is truly mind blowing. 프로세스가 몸에 익지 않으면, 충분한 연습이 없으면, 몸이 그 movement, choreography를 기억하지 않으면 완벽한 유리 작업을 만들 수 없다. Glass는 차가워보이지만 굉장히 뜨겁다. You have to be totally immersed in it. When working with glass, I am zoned out. 그 때만큼은 모든 잡다한 생각들을 소거하고 현재에 집중할 수 있게 해준다.
