The Napping Wizard Sessions: Moo Kwon Han: Drum

Published: March 7, 2020, 5 a.m.

In this episode I talk with multi-media artist Moo Kwon Han about his recent exhibition, DRUM, at the Gyeongin Art\nMuseum in Seoul, Korea. To make this work, he was granted access to multiple power facilities, many of them\nnuclear, all in South Korea. In our conversation we unravel the works in the exhibition, from the initial inspirational\nimage of a detail of yellow drums containing radioactively contaminated clothing through to a final musical score that\nencapsulates both the path and the contents of the exhibition. In our conversation, I draw out the creative path Han\nfollowed in constructing Drum. I encourage you to look at his website before listening:\n\nhttps://www.hanmookwon.com/drum.
