I Can’t Get Away is a three-channel black-and-white silent video. The video depicts 4 sequences: a figure perpetuating walking away; a figure bounded to an immobile tree; a figure running away from another figure, and vice versa.

withal our bodies we are is a work combining text and the moving image of body movements. In the text, the speaker feels awkward and nervous at a club and meets ’Jiwon‘, visiting different places and sharing communal movements and affect. Based on the senses emerging from the text - nervousness, self-consciousness, relaxedness, awkwardness, and etc. - Sunghyun who performed for this piece choreographed movements with me. In this work, Sunghyun presents texts that are printed in reverse on the mirror and performs movements that are sometimes related, not related, or maybe extended from the text. By putting text and movements together, we think about how our bodies move and what it is about to move together with others.

In the present work, the artists appears lying on his back, his eyes mostly closed, dreamingly listening to a walkman that plays, a recording of 'The Best of Lou Reed and the Velvet Underground'.

As we listen to the hypnotic interpretion of the familiar songs - as emblematic for pop music history as 'Psycho' is for film - we are forced to mentally 'reconstruct' the remaining orchestration, instrumentation and vocals. We must attempt to reassemble something we already know to be a fact by negotiating the sticky mess of interpretation, meaning, and memory.
