Synopsis

Tail Language is satirizing hypocritical culturalism and the analytical errors of human language through movements that are motivated by the symbolic system of tail language and gestures of animals in our imagination. It aims to break away from the body and language through a process of dismantling and recombining from structural and semiotic movements such as those of lines and planes, or the intersection of lines and shapes. This work is a process that reveals the language of the body, which is more primitive and lucid than text and words. It is a small but important attempt to discover ‘Truth’ on the opposite side of social dialogue and relationships concealed by hypocrisy and superficial intellectualism.

Review

"Grotesque wit, strong provocation and an emotional stir….
She looks fragile, careful, quite private, and sometimes secret. But the moment these her looking changes to dance, we got one shot of reversal."
- Song Nameun, the representative of theArtsnco (Korea) from Dance webzine 2014.08
