Yeondoo Jung Handmade Memories – On the Dividing Line between Body & Soul, dual channel HD video on wall-mounted displays, sound, 9’:16”, 2008

Yeondoo Jung (b. 1969, Korea) is well known for his constructed photographs and videos that interpret and represent the recollections of others. His still and moving images capture elaborate hand-made sets that reconstruct memories of subjects, events and scenery in real-time. This diptych video work forms part of the Handmade Memories series. In one screen, an elderly man recounts a personal story set around a train journey. In the other, a projection of pre-recorded video footage of a train track is set into a staged environment. We become aware of several spatial layers in the assembly of imagery and narration.
