Primitive Sense

This year’s primitive sense art festival has the theme of “The Fleeting Moment of Water.” It is an attempt to see what kind of festival is needed under the current situation.

When people straightly face to the nature, primitive sense will return to our feeling. we think fine art is born at that moment. “Nature” is not only at outside of us, contains the life of ourselves, inherited from the origin of life. It is to create a festival as a cultural boundary that connects the outside and the locals, connects art and tradition, and cities and regions.

My work “Constanly Floating and So Rising” will be screened on 27^th of August at Shiano Hall

Pink Bike wins Award

My photograph “Rosa Fahrrad / Pink Bike” is one of the Award winners of the IV H-TEAM artist award 2021 with the topic: "Everything in order ...?"

For the fourth time, the Munich social aid association H-TEAM e.V. in Munich has one International art competition held as part of its series of events Social meets art and culture. Patron of the event is the Rotary Club Munich - English Garden

With the competition, the H-Team wanted, to bring the event series “Social meets art and culture” back to life after more than a year, to draw attention to this everyday statement and, on the other hand, to stimulate reflection. Furthermore, the H-Team want to bring up social issues through artistic expressions

COCOON II is a short one minute version of my live performance and video performance COCOON.

Subway, the place of our everyday life is being reconstructed as the place of culture with film!

Through extreme short films of 90 seconds, subway becomes a moving theater and through production of subway films, it becomes a filming location.
Subway can be transformed as a new cultural place when we deconstruct the border of art and daily life by stimulating our imagination hidden in our life.

Seoul Metro International subway Film Festival throws an exclamation mark to a repetitive modern life. When anyone make, enjoy and share films in Seoul Metro, our daily life can be more exciting and special.

Festival für Freunde ( Festival for Friends)

 

Screening in the Forest

Festival für Freunde ( Festival for Friends)

"Whether analog or digital: the main thing is with friends"

29.07.2021 – 01.08.2021

14806 Dahnsdorf /Planetal, Germany

My video work BROKEN VISION with Kuo Yu-I is present this time in a forest during the whole time of the festival.

This year the festival takes place in a hybrid , physical with public as well online and with live streams

A metaphorical visual poem with no spoken or written words. About the soul and the body in a place that goes beyond time, space and visions, and crosses the boundaries of our everyday social and spatial environments that we have created ourselves.

The ninth edition of the Festival combines visual art, theater, performance and music. It takes place in the country side. Away from the hustle and bustle and over stimulation of the big city, the festival want to bring artists from the region together with internationally known artists. A large courtyard, a disused factory, a dilapidated villa, a small forest ... a place with a lot of performing space, where the artists and spectators can be accommodated together in one place and where there is space for imagination and experiments to try out new forms apart from the usual stage models. Our goal is to network artists and viewers.
