"Collecting Yourself"

One of my students is an Art Major, who is working for some students from Germany on a project for a Master's Programme called "Museum and Exhibition" at the Carl-von-Osseitzky University in Oldenburg, Germany.

I think it has something to do with Normativity of life often leads to student's daily routines being "invisible in public". The project aims at focusing specifically on these aspects from the vantage points of cultural studies, exhibition practice and artistic analysis.

(I did not write the above, stole it from the booklet! LOL)

Students collected typical aspects of their everyday life and exhibit these in public spaces, wearing or in specially designed mobile "white cubes" made of aluminum and clothe. The portable cubes are eye-catching and manage to concentrate the attention of the Korean passers-by. Most people just ignored them but in the coming video we will see more reactions of trying to figure out, "뭐하는거지?" or "What are you doing?"

Notice how she is carefully and casually ignoring the 'crazy foreign guy.

Seoul Women's University is involved with the project which is kind of "Performance Art".
