About us
Let's read it together and exchange ideas. I'm curious to hear your thoughts and interpretations. Reading can be such a personal experience, and I believe that discussing it helps us gain a deeper understanding. It's fascinating how the same words can evoke different emotions and perspectives in each of us. Plus, bouncing ideas off one another often leads to new insights and discoveries. So, let's dive in and explore this text together!

[Exhibition] Sak-da: The Poetics of Decomposition
MMCA Seoul, 30 Samcheong-ro, Sogyeok-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, KRHave you considered the end of the artworks you are seeing? Where is the line between trash and the artwork you are making? Can we leave nothing behind, even though everything is governed by the second law of entropy?
The Korean verb “Sak-da” encompasses meanings such as “to become rotten,” “to lose vitality,” as well as “to be digested” and “to ferment and develop flavor.” This multiplicity of meanings offers a productive way to interpret the transformations of contemporary works. Beyond the negative connotations of decay, “Sak-da” evokes both the descent and ascent of energy, as well as qualitative enhancement achieved in collaboration with nonhuman beings. What occurs when an “artwork” decays as evidence of human creation? If plants grow, wind blows, and invisible life stirs in the place where the piece falls apart, can it still be called an “artwork”? And if so, whose work is it?
We’ll share our thoughts on the exhibition afterward. Start whenever you’d like, and let’s meet at Terarosa Cafe in the museum at 4 PM.
