A.I.R. Gallery
Brooklyn, NY
April-May 2025
Through an installation of light and sound and movement-based performance, 금마타리(Infinite Love) counters the weaponization of sound and voice at the Koreas’ Demilitarized Zone by building choreographies that seek to speculatively convey the activity of wildlife inside the divide.
Yim responds to the absence of the human and the lingering shape of violence attached to this region to consider the sacred and insidious dimensions of these invisible forms. Through choreographic methods, they transform the gallery into a theater for somatic research, extending their inquiry into a metaphysical realm.
