who's living in the Forest (2021) 

This is a sound map project created to re-sensitize the library space as part of a public art initiative. The Seocho Banpo Public Library is situated within a residential area and frequented by local residents of all ages. Since the pandemic began in 2020, many aspects of our living spaces have changed. This project seeks to observe and experience the familiar library from the perspective of an outsider.

In this “forest” of the library, visitors are invited to listen to stories and hidden sounds throughout the space, exploring each corner with a refreshed and unfamiliar sense.
