Bokjari – Demultiple was made for a week of celebration for the Architecture Week in October 2013, at the feet of the Seoul City Hall, in the very center of the old city. Our aim was to create a new field of perception, but rather than force experiencing subjects into a overwhelming art piece, allow city flaneurs and passer-by to casually sit, check their hair, take pictures, but also experiencing an ambiguous demultiplication of their own image, revealing new qualities of light and city perspectives.
The four mirrors created a strong effect of reversing directions; one could see anew the very landscape that was the everyday environment. Some people also ate a sandwich, waiting for a friend.
