Internal Library
(This is a past event and is no longer running)
By:
Bongsu Park
Occupying the entire Print Room Studio, Bongsu Park’s Internal Library is an externalized manifestation of inner space, private thoughts made public, contorted and expressed anew.
Moving through a labyrinth-like installation formed by hanging translucent fabrics within the black-box theatre space, each visitor will encounter three antique wooden bureaux – dedicated to Memory, Dream and Secret. Here, on a variety of vintage typewriters, each individual is invited to leave anonymously their inner most thoughts.
Over the course of the event the artist will re-appropriate the collected texts and integrate them into the fabric of the installation through video projection and soundscape. The whole environment will be an ever-evolving sensory experience where text, sound and image blend and become an integral part of the fabric of the Internal Library.
A live performance will take place on the final day of the exhibition where all the collected texts will be distilled and re-expressed.
Participants:
Participants are welcome to contribute a single or multiple memories, dreams or secrets in any length and in any style. The text can be pre-prepared or improvised on the spot. All visitors are still welcome to experience the Internal Library without needing to submit texts of their own
