Lee Chaeyoung
Lee Chaeyoung's image may be the image of a sense of quietness after everyone has left, a form of religious annihilation. It is a landscape where all desires have been wiped out long ago. Spaces freed from people's specific desires appear uniformly. In a situation so quiet, uniform, and regular, even the slightest change or noise feels like thunder. The same goes for the changes in stuffed daily life and small changes in emotions. The state of independent and fundamental isolation of an individual who exists solitarily is a kind of an infertile state that cannot sustain life and culture. The image of infertility paradoxically signifies the possibility of the birth of numerous lives. The uniform but empty image that has abandoned something is a metaphor for both the absence of meaning and the moment when meaning is born. Buildings and places remember people and recreate relationships in secretive ways.
