Image does not only appear visually, but also can be aroused in hearing, smell and sense of touch, or created newly. Thus, image is synaesthetic and stays between reality and illusion.
Like imagined image from a story by tradition, Yoonjung Chang's solo exhibition 'Original Soundtrack' focuses on image from others' story. As the title presents, it is a visual image stimulated by film music, which is imagined scene by atmosphere of music and sound effect. Memory for mother's hometown is realistic image to the artist and revealed as unfamiliar one.
Photo image created from a mix of embellished memory and the artist's imagination shows non-existing time and space. Painting on photo or making glass of photo frame blurred, the artist recomposes space-time layers in images. Artworks contrasting between memory for reality and unrealistic imagination will arouse landscape of person and life introspected between past, present and future.
