Public work

Busan, South Korea

Commissioned by Funny Revenge

For 2 months from July 20 through September 20, 2011, Jazoo Yang stayed at the independent art space AGIT’s residency program in Jangjeon-dong, Busan, Korea. The area has been transformed into a (one-room) studio village by tearing down old buildings under the influence of capitalism. The artist assumed the houses, buildings being torn down into rubbles as an imaginary excavation site to find relics. The project was about finding, excavating the relics and restoring them, which included installation works with plastic tapes and paint, reconstruction of the site, and exhibition of excavated relics. 

2011년,7월 20일부터 9월 20일 두 달간, 작가는 부산 장전동에 위치한 독립 문화 공간 아지트에 입주 작가로 머물며 작업했다. 부산 장전동은 자본 논리에 따라 오래된 집을 허물고 급격하게 원룸촌으로 바뀌고 있는 곳으로, 이곳에서 작가는 허물어져가는 거리와 집들의 현장을 가상의 유물이 발굴된 곳으로 상정했다. 테이프와 페인트를 이용한 설치 작업, 전시 공간에서의 현장 재현, 발굴한 유물들을 전시하는 방식으로,  장전동의 유물, 유적을 발굴, 복원하는 프로젝트를 펼쳤다.
