Let Us Usher In A New Heyday of Building a Sports Power in the Revolutionary Spirit of Paektu

2016. Four-channel video installation, mattress, bedsheets. 

The room becomes the cave of the founding myth of Korea, in which the bear and the tiger undergo (or fail) the throes of transmogrification. This installation was accompanied by a bilingual publication in which the myth was presented faithfully in Korean, but was rewritten in English to incorporate cereal mascots, digital avatars, and the transubstantiation stories of Korean-American charismatic Protestant churches.
