A Line of the Projection The bicycle,
a means of transportation, has already become an instrument of play in our
lives and a fitness device for promoting the health of people today. In
other words, riding a bicycle is an act of moving from one space to another, as
well as a form of labor and entertainment. JUNG
presents the opportunity to experience the equivalent meaning of work and play
in life, through the gesture, or playing, of ¡®riding a bike¡¯. When the bicycle
pedal is pumped inside the container installed at the entrance to the Dadaepo
beach, energy is transmitted and the LED lines stretching out to the sea light
up. The illumination conjures up the shapes of mountains, the earth, and the
river. Symbolically depicting nature, this audience participatory work asks us
fundamental questions on the boundary between human and nature, and life and
play.
