The ArtPlug Yeonsu (APY) Artist residency, run by the Yeonsu Cultural Foundation in Incheon, will hold the 2022 APY Residency Artist Special Exhibition Remapping Remapping Remapping: Time, Space, Memory until November 27.
This year was the first year of the APY’s artist residency program. Five artists participated in APY’s Regional Research Tour program in June, and they are presenting the works based on the artists’ research at various places in Yeonsu-gu, such as Songdo Amusement Park, Fishing Village, Cheonghak Pool, Samho-Hyeon, Cheonghak-dong Zelkova, and used car sales complexes.
The Save-a-Blabla team, composed of artists Gal Yura, Ki Seulki, and Han Suji, reflected on their unique perspectives on eight places in Yeonsu-gu and visualized them through observation and exploration. Artist Lee Sung Kyung expressed the gradually forgotten and disappearing landscapes of Yeonsu-gu through paintings. Artist Jung Jung Ho presents an installation work based on photos and videos that tells the story of a used car sales complex located at the site of the old Songdo Amusement Park.
The five participating artists from different backgrounds look at and reinterpret the present and the past of Yeonsu-gu from various perspectives.
