A Two-Person Show with Yunseo Cho at the Dolphin Gallery, St John's College, Oxford
Movements in transient moments leave traces that form the volume of things. There is no single plane anymore — a flat rectangular can be dragged into a cuboid; a circle can rotate into a sphere. We can’t observe the actual movements as everything can be perfectly still, but they all leave traces; the traces are illusory but real.
A single frame captures a decisive moment in time, whilst frame after frame — frames being layered, played in sequence, create something in motion, something alive. The movements are illusory but real.
What is then left between being still and moving, inanimate and alive?
They appear not to be the exact opposite, nor are they inherently incompatible anymore. Perhaps it is not a binary relationship after all.
