Evocation - Friday, March 30th, 7:10pm UB North Campus, Center For the Arts (CFA), The Screening Room


Evocation is a visual ode influenced by the poem “evocation” written by Kim So Wol. the poem “evocation ” consists of strong emotional conflicts that occurs from losing a loved one. And these develop Han, ironic or paradoxical emotions, which I try to illustrate in my work. Evocation is including the concepts of the endless wheel of rebirth by connecting the beginning to the ending of the animation. Also Chrysanthemum, apricot, magnolia, and lotus symbolize fall, winter, spring, and summer respectively. There are three characters such as a fish, a bird and the moon. The fish, which is representing the soul, try to approach the moon, a symbol of Transcendence or God, and transforms into the bird. The transformation suggests the spiritual growth of soul.
