Purpose of the residency

Korean shamanistic arts and rituals are said to be a way to release people's resentment ("Han") that arises in the course of social life. While learning their history and structure, I will explore ways to release the identity trauma (resentment) of our own Korean diaspora: "I am Korean, but I cannot speak Korean."

Plan during the residency
  • Research on shamanistic performing arts culture in Korea (shamanistic culture of Gyeonggi-do province, "Baejin Gut of South Coast" of Gyeongsangnam-do province, "Jindo Sikgimgut" of Jindo-gun, Jeollanam-do province, etc.)
  • Research on people living in Korea with foreign roots and multiple languages
