In my first residency program in a foreign country, Korea, I stayed in a residency studio provided by the Museum of Contemporary Art, Korea. There I leaned many interesting Korean words, and discovered that some Korean words sound very similar to Japanese words. Japanese and Korean words influenced each other over the long history of the two countries. After I noticed this fact, I started to collect words from my friends that gave me strong impressions.
Each of the personalized sayings has its story between a friend of mine and myself and it brings us closer to each other. When it happens, the friend of mine and I share what's common between our different personal histories.
After this experience of mine, I wrote down those words on each of the panels that faked the captions of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Korea.
