The Biennale will put forward a viewpoint that narrates the stories of backstreets in Busan, and how they intersect and connect to those of other cities beyond the shoreline of the Korean Peninsula. The aim is to explore ways the city’s human and non-human inhabitants adapt to this ever-changing world of ours as we ride the waves ahead of us. Join curator Haeju Kim as she tells us about her ongoing work on the Busan Biennale and takes us on a journey through the collective memories that remain lesser known or hidden within the history of modern Busan.The session will be followed by Q&A. It is held in conjunction with the talk series Village of Rafts.Please note that this programme will be conducted online on Zoom.

However, in the last two decades, with the initiation of major infrastructure projects, it has resurfaced as a site for open contestation. Neoliberal expansionism, resource use and geopolitics have dominated recent mappings of the littoral. Today, highly specialised capital, infrastructural, ecological, and migratory flows occupy the sea lanes from Canton to Zanzibar. Despite these ‘newer’ neoliberal algorithms, its peoples have continued to chart their own cultural and aesthetic visions, highlighting a need to discuss how the human agency evolves across this terraqueous terrain. In a series of conversations grounded in contemporary practice, 𝘝𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘙𝘢𝘧𝘵𝘴 lays the groundwork for an aspirational network across the Indian Ocean littoral.Event DetailsPlease note that this programme is an online event.
