5000 Miles and 8 Hours apart (video/sound, 59' 19"), 2012, the Site/Memory Mapping Project
At 9:30 am and 5:30 pm, late summer, we walk together, 5000 miles and 8 hours apart. The Korean and Welsh landscape
merge with the telling of stories about our histories and our grandmothers to form a long distance conversation;
a moment where time and histories collide; and a slow unfolding shared walk of remembrance.
This was shown at the Aberystwyth Storytelling Festival 2012 in Aberystwyth, U.K.
The Site/Memory Mapping Project in collaboration with Rebecca Woodford-Smith is an ongoing project exploring walking as a performative dialogue.
