REM, 2023
single channel video, 13:38 min
collective project with Yukyeom Kim (Yuki), and Minghao Zhou
This project was a collaboration with the Sense Experimental Theater performance team, comprised of myself, Jenny Lee, Yukyeom Kim (Yuki), and Minghao Zhou, and I served as the primary director and project leader. REM began with Yuki's animation, which inspired me to suggest the idea of creating a video. With the assistance of my team members, I directed the sleeping performance and filmed the footage. I was intrigued by the potential of the video and decided to experiment and explore it further, exhibiting it as a site-specific installation in a closet at the Hinges and Sills group house gallery show. I also projected the video onto the ceiling of the Maclean ballroom at SAIC, allowing the projection to be viewed from any angle. Also we decided to project it even inside a tent, which we built for the Sense Experimental Theater Production performance. Additionally, we presented this piece at the No Nation gallery, where we performed an interactive sleeping performance during the Sense’s Experimental Theater Production.
