[with video] Official review: “Circulation metaphor” (Korean Cultural Centre UK)
LOCATION. Closest station: Charing Cross. Exit the station and get onto the Strand, then walk west towards the square with big dogs with hair. At the traffic circle, turn southeast into Northumberland Avenue and walk for another minute.
VENUE. This is the official entry point for the promotion of Korean culture to Britain, or as the Korean Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism puts it – “to enhance friendship, amity and understanding” between the two countries.
FLOWERY NARRATIVE. Circular Metaphor shows us the never-ending relationships between nature and human activities - and their “circular communication”.
And to celebrate having a UNESCO creative city in South Korea (there are currently two – Bucheon for literature and Daegu Metropolitan for music).
ANYTHING FUN? The exhibits are as diverse as they can be, and in the centre is this ceramic city fitted with many video cameras (photo), all high-definition and in real time. Everything is captured – from tile surfaces to looming visitors.
At another corner, a photo of a forest is being burnt only to reveal a lawn (clip).
Also a moving laser show.
And a make-believe garden with glowing trees.
Time is asset: save it for better with 25-min museum tours. Or find yourself in my novel, check out the photo of the day and finish it off with a secret prize.
