10.0 state of being

2021, 4 m

A reflection on growing up in Kentucky as a Korean-American woman.

Combining elements of magical realism and music video, this film portrays an imagined experience based on autobiographical events. “Jeongseon Arirang,” a Korean anthem, energizes the tranquil imagery of Kentucky landscapes. Meditating on fluidity and oneness in space, "state of being" envisions a reconciliation of disparate cultural realities.
