Dohee Kim, Yujin Lee
Dohee Kim (born in Busan) and Yujin Lee (residence in Jeju) crossed the ocean from South Korea to Fukuoka, where they will create and present works based on 'food.'
The exhibition is part of the "Curator's Exhibition," a project by a promising curators team called "EAG," consisting of three young curators from Korea, Japan, and China (Hyesu Cho, Naoko Tanaka, and Qiuyu Jin). The chief curator for this exhibition is Hyesu Cho (born in Busan), who will reveal the unique cycles and exchanges of the basis of Korean food culture from the perspective of Fukuoka.
Food is like a story or an annotated text integrated into our human body. The history of exchange between the Kyushu region and the Korean peninsula began 1,500 years ago. In terms of 'food' have been integrated into our lives today through a history of wars and migrations. The title "Sikgu 식구" refers to family members, or those who live and eat together under the same roof, even if they are not blood-related—telling that regardless of origin or position, we could become a family by sharing a meal.
