The artist examines historical possibilities of montage techniques that evolved during the 1960s and 1970s through the artworks of Dan Flavin, Bruce Nauman, Richard Serra, Dan Graham, and Michael Asher, aiming to redeem Cubist and Constructivist approaches. Created in collaboration with Chinese and Korean animators, this work dynamically visualizes the meanings of the Taeguk symbol and its orbital paths.
