Abstract (English)

" At Gallery TPW, Chun presents an ongoing body of work that looks to the moon, and to sijo–a traditional form of Korean poetry1–as conceptual sites for "unlanguaging," a process the artist describes for unfixing language itself. Through video sculptures, film, abstract scores, drawing, and sound, Chun unfixes and rewrites forms of linguistic imperialism into nonlinear modes of language, poetics and being. In doing so the artist asks: what happens when imperialist narratives, the violence of language homogenization, and the bureaucratic documents that enforce this, are disrupted and (mis)translated through poetry, sound, and Korean folklore?
