MINOUK LIM

Minouk Lim’s The Eleven-Faced Traveller is being screened on the media facade in front of COEX Artium until September 7. The work is a reconfiguration of a segment from the artist‘s three-channel video East Sea Story, presented in her solo exhibition at Ilmin Museum of Art in February 2025.

The Eleven-Faced Traveller transforms the faces of the Eleven-Faced Avalokitesvara into those of ordinary travelers, examining the how compassion shapes the relationship between the city, community, and sentient beings. These travelers traverse East Asia and futuristic spaces, revealing the traumas and unconsciousness of a multiplicity that transcends borders and individual subjectivity.
