Garden of Sungeum

Park Sungeum is an elderly woman who lives in a shabby tile-roofed house. The eaves of her roof are sagging, and the utilities have been cut off. When she is not at home, she goes to a local Senior Citizens Centre. The centre is her shelter when it gets bitterly cold in winter. She usually spends a day, however, by the wooden gate at the entrance of her house. By the gate, there is clutter of clothes, dishes, a table and a plastic bag of miscellaneous items. A cat is also leashed there in the dark, and Sungeum cares for the cat.

The chickens, virtually released in TV Garden by the artist, are also isolated from other living species or external changes, and live forever free from evolution, reproduction, creation or decomposition. This all seems to symbolize a future utopia in which the ecosystem is won over and maintained by technology. By borrowing the voice of artificial intelligence the Moojin Brothers ask humans who blindly accept technology without resistance if such an immortal life is what they really want to manifest.
