Background, history, commissioner of the work
When I was studying at the Glasgow School of Art, I planned and carried out my art project, 'Post-Future Ground'. For this work, I was awarded a John Kinross Scholarship from the Royal Scottish Academy. And the video work in this project was selected as a work of the Nature Project of Seoulo Media Canvas supervised in Seoul City Hall, Korea in 2021, and it was screened in Seoul for three months last year. This work was shown in the exhibition at Reid Gallery in Glasgow(2022).
Thematic/contextual information
This work is included in my project, 'Post-Future Ground'(www.yenap.org/project-post-future-ground). It is based on the imagination of a new land, a world after the collapse of the present civilization. In this project, I collected artificial debris from the urban decay across Glasgow city and made a virtual space of them, renewed material, 'Post-futurist soil' by them. The table for the whole process includes the Soil manifesto, 3D scanning, crushing, analyzing, and re-producing.
