withal our bodies we are 2024

withal our bodies we are is a work combining text and the moving image of body movements. In the text, the speaker feels awkward and nervous at a club and meets ’Jiwon‘, visiting different places and sharing communal movements and affect. Based on the senses emerging from the text - nervousness, self-consciousness, relaxedness, awkwardness, and etc. - Sunghyun who performed for this piece choreographed movements with me. In this work, Sunghyun presents texts that are printed in reverse on the mirror and performs movements that are sometimes related, not related, or maybe extended from the text. By putting text and movements together, we think about how our bodies move and what it is about to move together with others.

you have no mother! N/A

'you have no mother' is the text that appears in Lady Vengeance(2005) directed by Park Chan-Wook. Geumja's daughter looks at the sky and the clouds turn into the shape of 'you have no mother'. These three women are a family. They are not blood-related but a 'chosen family' that people usually say these days. I consider family to be a relationship that shares space and humor with each other, so I got jealous of the people who became chosen family. This film started from that jealousy. These three are not the mother, father, the child. However, they are 'mother, wife, and a man'. They are cute. They go through horrible things with their cuteness. They know how to attack with their cuteness.
