I’d like to focus on the media artist Eunsu Kang, the artist behind the installation Shin’m. Kang studied at Ewha Woman’s University, where she received her BFA and MFA. For her postgraduate studies, Kang received an MA from UCSC and a PhD from the University of Washington.
Shin’m is a hybrid of a performance and installation which explores the relationships between the body and space through spatial drawing of sound. Kang created this piece in collaboration with Diana Garcia-Snyder (a choreographer), Donald Craig, and Bo Choi (costume designer). I loved seeing the environment respond visually and sonically to the participants’ movements. I think it inspired the participant to try different movements to see what kind of environment they could generate. Moreover, though the piece is very technical, the sounds of nature add a different dimension to the environment and create a soothing, beautiful atmosphere.
