UC-98 Soft & flat (Seoul), 2016
The second chapter of UC-98 gets deeper into the concepts of liquidity and fluidity developed by Zygmunt Bauman and Walter Benjamin while exploring the city of Seoul. The series of paintings with screens UC-98 Soft & flat (Seoul) tries a new mythology of a city that is the capital of high tech conglomerates as well as the historical commercial hub of sea products.
In front of abstract paintings, flat screens plays videos of the stalls of Noryangjin fish market where the trade of raw material led to capitalist values. The abstract script of UC-98 continues through the images and surfaces of Seoul.
