Diviation(2023)

‘Divination’ refers to a Korean fortune-telling skill that judges good or bad luck. The 'instantity' revealed in the act of predicting tomorrow according to the state of randomly throwing objects such as a grain of rice or wood sticks named ‘Yut’, is similar to the 'improvisation' revealed in jazz music and is in line with the unique improvisation and aesthetics of pattern of Korean art. 

In the flow of just rhythm, which has no regularity at all, can be seen as a unique characteristic of Korean music that has a certain rule when viewed in one long phrase.
These characteristics were reinterpreted as contemporary music and combined with the Korean fan dance, and it was intended to invite the audience to another future world.
Through this moving that invite the wizard and unrealistic space, that is, a virtual world, as a motif of traditional music and images, to the world of fortune tellers' prophecies, the possibility of 'reinterpretation' was tested as an extension of the attempt to combine modern literature with contemporary music and rhythm.
In modern art, 'reinterpretation' is one of various experiments on what form of development can be reborn, and the basis of all these experiments is how much the spatio-temporal transcendence of the word 'improvisation' provides endless possibilities and opportunities for modern art.
