MICROPLASTIC PROPAGANDA (2021)
Real-time recorded video of computer screen, with sound, 11’ 57’’, FHD. (En)
이 영상은 작가 상상한 음모론을 바탕으로, 미세 플라스틱과 북한·NASA 간의 비밀 협력을 주제로 하고 있다. 작가는 음모론적 서사의 구조를 활용하여 시각적 스토리텔링의 원리를 탐구하며, 비판적이면서도 몰입감 있는 내러티브를 구축한다. 실제 음모론에서 가져온 시각적, 문학적, 그래픽적 요소들을 결합해, 이러한 아이코노그래픽하고 문서적인 자료들을 조작하고 재해석함으로써 새로운 시각적 허구를 만들어낸다.

Cette vidéo met en scène une théorie du complot imaginée par l’artiste autour d’un microplastique et d’une collaboration secrète entre la Corée du Nord et la NASA. L’artiste explore les principes du storytelling visuel en s’appuyant sur la structure du récit conspirationniste pour construire une narration à la fois critique et immersive. À travers la combinaison d’éléments visuels, textuels et graphiques inspirés de véritables théories du complot, ces matériaux iconographiques et documentaires sont détournés, manipulés et réinterprétés pour donner forme à une nouvelle fiction visuelle.
