감각을 통한 실재의 재구성

Abstract

This study starts with observing modern society as a large, complex object that constantly pours out information. The context for understanding society is composed of information, but due to excessive information, the context becomes loose and the information falls out of context. When we observe nature, we intuitively grasp and understand it through our own experiences and perceptions. In order to grasp our variable modern human society, it is necessary to have a fluid posture, similar to when looking at nature, and I think this is possible through continuous observations of an object through 'playful immersion' and 'contemplation'. When paying attention to an actual object in this way, the nature of the object can be experienced from an open perspective, and the object is recognized as an independent, autonomous object that can exist without human intervention. The sensory memories obtained from the object through perception are sensations, i.e., feelings or impressions, and they accumulate as experiences with the object are repeated, forming their own ‘connection-context’. The main objects of the work are shoes, signs, and maps. Each of these materials is an individual object and forms a network of relationships, allowing researchers to recognize the world as a compact model. They are installation works that create virtual situations for actual places or world maps, and video works that expand the montage characteristics of digital images and draw images as virtual spaces into real spaces through body movements and voices. The researcher here attempts to see 'another reality of the object' as a link that constitutes the world by expanding the free sensuous nature of human beings, beyond our understanding of society through existing rational judgments or logical thinking.
