Document A is an artist and architect collective that studies and researches site and culture._ Jang Suk Joon, Ji Sun Shin, Yeon Sook Lee, Sang Hoon Youm(architect), Ji Woong Nam (film director). We aims to go beyond the limited perspectives of existing post-colonial views in introducing other cultures, and provide a platform in which we can share valuable messages of life as contemporaries. This project, which has been re-translated through the language of contemporary art, is an alternative that brings together the introduction of other cultures and the experiences of the artists.
Nomadic of artists/ROAMER, From Place to Place. The significance of the exhibition planned by Document A is in the introduction of other cultures suggested through the artist’s movement/roaming activities that is in lines with the exploration of new cultural areas, and by showing the development process of the project in one place. Moreover, the significance is also in its role of a “Roamer” of contemporary society by showing how each artist read, recorded, and reflected the culture. The presentation of Aborigine’s art through this project goes beyond the limited perspective of previous decorative image, and is expected to be an exhibition providing a new way of cultural exchange.
