Y artist project 5 'Me, You and the Others' by Yoojin An
by Daegu Art Museum
Location: Daegu Art Museum
Date: 14 Jun - 3 Sep 2014

Daegu Art Museum has arranged Me, You, and the Others as the fifth exhibition of the Y artist Project. Young Daegu-native artist Yoojin AN has expressed her interest in relations and communication among individuals in society. On show at the exhibition are new works she recently completed in Germany over one year along with works involving her physical sense firsthand such as touches by hand and movement in a sack. 

A network comprised of "you" and "me"forms a society, and people constantly influence and communicate with one another in the structures of such a network.The position of you and me is not fixed. We above all simultaneously have two positions in communication: your stance and my stance. In this world of correlations the same position is allowed not only to myself, but to others.That is why conflict and collision have always taken place within a network, and these elements generate unpredictable images. 

In new works at the show, Yoojin An explores limited factors in disclosing differences among individuals, involving participants in conceived experimental situations. And, the artist demonstrates their responses to experiments in the form of a visual documentary. 

In the work 'What's the question?' a strange communication takes place: two people have to reply simultaneously. In the Mannheim University Project, an individual reaches a standard of actions I set while others do not. I think viewers at the venue could share their ideas, inspired by this work.
