작품 제목: 형연(泂然 Resonance)한원석 작가Wonsuk Hanhttp://www.busanbiennale.org/sub01/05_fix.php?no=5209amp;cat_no=2002amp;seq=101510amp;type=2amp;year=2008amp;type2=3amp;type3=amp;page=2‘형연’ 역시 그가 줄곧 추구해온 쓰레기미술의 맥락에 있다. ‘맑은 소리가 퍼지다’라는 뜻인 ‘형연’은 1800~3200개의 버려진 스피커가 사용된다. 성덕대왕신종(에밀레종)은 771년에 완성된 국보 제29호다. 작가는 “내게 에밀레종은 살아 울림이 되는 마음이다’’고 말한다. 에밀레종은 “시간이 흐르고 장소가 변해도 종 자체로서 변함이 없듯 우리 마음속에 변해서는 안 되는 그 무엇”이라고 한다. 버려진 스피커를 통해 급변하는 시대에 뒤처져 소외받는 사람들을 떠올리는 건 어렵지 않다. 그리고 다시 이 스피커를 재구성해 새로운 소리와 시각적 재미를 이끌어내는 것에서 재생과 재활의 의미를 끄집어내는 것도 쉽다.전체적으로 종의 외형과 종두는 에밀레종을 닮았지만 종각이나 종소리는 에밀레의 그것이 아니다. 경주박물관에 보관된 에밀레종을 고스란히 복제했다면 의미는 밋밋했을 것이고 해석은 단순했을 것이다. 일상적이지 않은 미니멀한 종각, 종모양에서 종소리가 아닌 다른 소리를 듣는 체험은 작가가 노리는 전복의 미학이다. 과거와 현재, 시간과 장소를 아우른다는 점에서도 작품은 묵직한 외양을 경쾌하게 떨쳐낸다. amp;copy;정형탁(독립큐레이터) ResonanceWonsuk Hanhttp://www.busanbiennale.org/english/sub01/05_fix.php?no=5471amp;cat_no=20022amp;seq=101510amp;type=2amp;year=2008amp;type2=3amp;type3=amp;page=2ResonanceOriginally from an architecture background, Wonsuk Han has always had a fascination with found and useless objects and rubbish. For his first solo exhibition, The Flowers of Evil, Han created flowers from over 100,000 cigarette butts. Taking dirty, smelly cigarette butts and turning them into fragrant flowers was an act of reincarnation of sorts. The play between the beautiful and the trashy is what led Han to explore the world of garbage art. It is of note that even the Korean term ?sreaggi,?or garbage is something that was created fairly recently. A century ago, there was no need for the term because houses, clothes and other daily necessities were all made of plants, wood, stone, clay or other natural materials that could be easily recycled in some fashion. In addition, food refuse could be made into fertilizer or fed to pigs. The country was one without rubbish in any capacity. Even tobacco was cultivated naturally and rolled without materials that would become cigarette butts. Now cigarettes are prepared with chemicals in such a way that they give about five minutes of pleasure before being thrown away. Han? second solo exhibition, an installation entitled Rebirth recreates the Silla dynasty observatory from the year 1374 known as Rebirth using 1,374 discarded headlights collected over a year from over 50 different junkyards.The piece Resonance carries on in this tradition by using between 1800 and 3200 trashed speakers to recreate a historic bell, completed in 771, known as ?mille? The artist explains that the sound of the Emille bell lives in his heart. After time and even in another place, the bell? sound stays with us. Han seeks to take this memorable timelessness of the Emille bell and juxtapose the temporary nature of the consumer culture that discarded the speakers used to make Han? bell. This juxtaposition creates new situations and artistic conditions.While the exterior of the work resembles the original bell, it is not a copy. If Han duplicated the superficial resemblance of the bell at the Kyoungju Museum the meaning is simple, and has a single interpretation. The sound and meaning of the original bell could never be duplicated. While having the overt appearance of the bell with a minimal bell base, the sound is different and a paradox is presented. Past and present, time and place, are all contained in this bell, which while conceptually loaded is visually light. ⓒHyungtak Jung _ Independent Curator자료 출처(Credit): 부산비엔날레 홈페이지촬영: 오용웅(오발탄 Ovaltan)촬영 일자: 2014년 10월 11일촬영 장소: 부산광역시 해운대구 APEC 나루공원카메라: Nikon D90렌즈: Nikon AF NIKKOR 24mm 1:2.8이미지 조정 gt; 자동레벨 사이즈 3543 X 2353
