Talk or Sing, with the artist’s drawings and texts by five writers, accompanies the exhibition Life of Always a Mirror by Sung Hwan Kim. The exhibition introduces Kim’s art as a systematic integration of video, drawing, installation, architecture, and performance into a single exhibition space. The title of the exhibition is a play on words in Korean on a Korean elementary school textbook’s title, Joyful Life. This method of education merges music, art, and physical education into a single subject as a didactic gesture in public education that teaches the youth not only knowledge but also the way they should lead a joyful life.
