Breath by KIM Hyeonju

Single Channel Video

An observation of the quotidian natures and forms of structures and lives discovered in urban centers leads to the obvious realization that these are not simply products of mankind but organically changing, created things much like mankind itself.

Human skin is the ultimate protector of the body, each skin marked with an individual history. But through their walls and windows, buildings also become other selves and bodies.

Viewed from structures in urban centers, the human body is robbed of the original space in which it was made to stand, and age-old civilization, history and human dignity take a back seat to desire and endless egoism. They have been repeatedly destroyed by various urban redevelopment policies. 

The heartbeat-like roar of development souns throughout the entire project. A speck of sand is made to  disappear by the two structures flanking it.

Duration: 3.50
