Jeong said on the 2nd that he will hold an online exhibition of satirical and humorous ink paintings on social media with the theme 12 3 Insurrection 1 Year The Dark Days. The works portray the situation from December 3 last year, when insurrection ringleader Yoon Seokyeol declared martial law, up to the present while the insurrection continues. The exhibition includes 21 works such as Yoon Seokyeol Martial Law Declaration History Flows On, Woo Wonshik National Assembly Speaker Wall Climb, Yoon Seokyeol Arrest Warrant Detention Refusal Underwear Performance, Kim Geonhee Seoul Southern Detention Center Detention, Binding the Insurrection Leader and Accomplices, Jigwiyeon Senior Judge Yoon Seokyeol Detention Cancellation. Woo Wonshik National Assembly Speaker Wall Climb shows Speaker Woo climbing over a steel fence into the National Assembly because a police bus blocked the official entrance during the vote to lift martial law. Seoljungmae Becoming a Bright Light features the Kisses protest group who called for Yoon Seokyeol’s arrest throughout a winter night despite heavy snowfall. Yoon Seokyeol Removal portrays the former president digging his own grave against the backdrop of the Constitutional Court impeachment trial. Lee Jaemyung Presidential Victory shows candidate Lee Jaemyung in a blue judo uniform flipping candidate Kim Moonsu in a red uniform in a judo match. Yoon Seokyeol Arrest Warrant Detention Refusal Underwear Performance mocks the former president refusing execution of an arrest warrant at Seoul Detention Center while wearing only underwear. Kim Geonhee Seoul Southern Detention Center Detention satirizes Kim Geonhee defending herself by saying I am a nobody using a luxury shoe as a microphone while Yoon lies next to her in only underwear. You can view the exhibition on Jeong’s YouTube channel Painter House TV, as well as on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. The original works can be viewed at Jeong’s studio Painter House located in Bukgyodong in Mokpo City in South Jeolla Province. Jeong said he wants to quickly extinguish the embers of the insurrection and create a space of time to reflect on the dark side of history. He added that through contemporary expression he recorded in his art how history repeats, from the coups of Park Chunghee and Chun Doohwan to the insurrection caused by Yoon Seokyeol’s martial law declaration that revived the nightmare of 5 18. submitted by /u/coinfwip4 |
