Jimin SONG, a korean book artist, old book restorer, photographer and a curator of an exhibition in seoul, she was born in Dai-Gu in South Korea on March 3th,1982. And she grew up in Seoul. She had been at the Art school of Strasbourg in the books studio for the binding and the book art. Actually she living in Paris: She always tell about a her real story by a book. She isn’t looking for a special and dramatic story, but something that exists everywhere and all the time and stay just a moment. She believe that “the most personal is the most universal”

In addition to Terra Incognita, the 2011 Incheon Woman Artists’ Biennial (IWAB) showcases the exhibition In the Wake of 2013 in its Tuning section. The exhibition addresses what it means to criticize. What constitutes a critical action? What are its conditions, components, and purposes? The exhibition also explores questions related to the necessity of gender-centric exhibitions, the power of (or the disenchantment with) art that instigates political change and social transformation, and to local Korean perspectives on social repositionings in globalism’s wake. In the Wake of 2013 revolves around the meaning of critical resistance?its mechanics and motivations, its practical and ideological values?by providing a venue for significant projects by artists, curators, and writers from around the world, many realized specifically for this exhibition.

2012 Cultural exchange Exhibition between Korea and Spain
Brief description of the Project
Curator Jimin Song mostly organizes an international exhibition, because she likes to present new things in another country to culturally exchange. At the same time, she tries to send her own message trough her exhibition. So for her, “Exhibition” is a formless materiel to share and communicate her own idea and as artist by other artists’ works.
This exhibition she organizes this time is a cultural exchange Exhibition between South Korea and Spain. It is an exhibition to have a cultural exchange between two countries, especially comics but also to throw a question to public about “How close can we get to a fact just by internet, which is quite main way today to get information.
So we will approach this question with eight artists. Four Korean and four Spanish comic artists, who will draw their own stories about one of each country without having real contact while just staying on line in their countries as follows,.
-Korean artists After research about Spain on internet, then during 3 months, create one comic on A3 papers
-Spanish artists After research about South Korea on internet, then during 3 months, create one comic on A3 papers.
Jimin Song will gather these drawings 6 month later then opens an exhibition for one month in a gallery of M** (near to Seoul) and in The Korean C**f Madrid. During this exhibition, we will organize a performance and an artist’s talk on the exhibition’s theme to enrich this project with the other discipline.
작가 송지민은 여러 분야를 함께 걸쳐가며 작품 세계를 구축하고 있다. 사진, 드로잉, 시 그리고 아트 북뿐만 아니라 고문서 보존과 복원 분야도 넘나든다. 그녀의 작품 세계에서 예술이란 한마디로 현실의 한 자락에서 끌어낸 « 감동의 구체화: La cristallisation émotionnelle»라고 볼 수 있다. 이러한 과정에 앞서 그녀는 그 단편들을 분리하고 고민하고, 그것들을 결정화하는 과정들을 거친다.
유리 구슬 같은 소중한 기억들: 때론 투명하고, 맑지만 때론 어렴풋하며 혼잡스럽기까지도 한 일상. 그 속에서 찾은 익숙하고 또 아주 하찮기도 한 삶의 짧은 한 순간이 우리 안에 또 종이(페이지) 위에 계속 살아 머물고 있는 듯 하다.
흔적, 삭제, 기억, 앙티미즘 그리고 보기. 만지기. : 이것이 그녀의 « 오브제 리브르 : objet-livres »가 갖고 있는 질문이다. 이렇게 사라지고 나타나기를 반복하는 그녀의 몽환적이고 연금숙적인 작품은, 마지 작은 주헌절 같은 가녀린 폭로, 직관적 인식을 갖고 있다. 마치 우리가 암실에서 사진 인화지를 현상액에 담그는 것처럼, 그녀의 책은 그곳에 한 페이지씩 적셔져야 하고, 그러한 행동은 그녀의 책을 잠시 동안 투명해지게 해, 그 동작을 통해 곧 어떤 이미지가 것이 보여지기 시작한다.
역시 아주 투명한 종이에 작고 익숙한 « 비둘기 »와 « 달팽이 »에 관한 주제로 한 작업은 어린이들을 위한 이야기 세계를 연상시키며 듯 하며, 어떤 형용하기 어려운 영혼의 상태를 우연적 효과로 이끌어내고 있다. : 자웅동체의 고독한 운명, 그리고 육지와 하늘 가득한 마취 쥐로 취급되는 비둘기를 역설적인 피조물을 그려내고 있다.
그녀의 작업 중 하나는 그녀에 허리에 맞는 « 허리띠-책 » 으로써도 존재하는데 이 책은 마치 그녀가 원하는 여행(삶)에서 그녀의 행복과 소중한 가치가 그녀로부터 달아나지 않게 꽉 죄어주고 있는 듯하다. 이 호기심 가는 작은 오브제는 길고 얇은 종이로 이루어져 있고 그 위에는 어둠이 게걸스럽게 집어삼키는 풍경과 함께, 기차 창문에 비치는 덧없는 그녀의 얼굴이 야간 기차 여행의 기억들이 이미지와 글로써 표현되어 있다.
그녀의 흑백 사진 시리즈 « 현존하는 단어: Les mot présents »에서 작가는 마치 그녀의 책들이 우리가 가끔 손에 쓰게 되는 메모처럼, 하찮아 보이는 생각이 단지 조금 발전 된 해석만이 아니라는 것을 암시하고 있는 듯 보인다
« 내가 사랑하는 시: Mes poèmes préférés »와함께작가는아버지가딸에게끊임없이풀어놓는사랑스러운잔소리를내적인하이쿠(일본의전통적인단시)로탈바꿈시켰다. 읽기도전에이미우리가어디선가들어본아주간단한단어와익숙한표현들은« 가장개인적인것이가장보편적인것이다 » 라는그녀의생각을다시한번잘표현해준다.
Jimin Song travaille à la croisée de plusieurs disciplines : photographie, dessin, poésie et art (ou arts) du livre, mais aussi restauration et conservation d'ouvrages anciens.
Tout l'art, chez elle, consiste à produire une « cristallisation émotionnelle » autour et à partir d'un fragment de réel au préalablement isolé, médité et bercé par la pensée.
Perles précieuses du souvenir : tantôt clairs et limpides, tantôt obscurs et confus, des instants familiers parfois dérisoires continuent de vivre en nous ou bien sur le papier.
Trace, effacement, mémoire, intimité mais aussi voir et toucher : voici donc ce dont il est question avec ses « objets-livres », tel cet ouvrage rêveur et alchimique qui procède par apparitions et disparitions, petites épiphanies et fragiles révélations. Comme si nous plongions un papier photo-sensible dans un bain de révélateur, il faut en humecter les pages afin de les rendre momentanément transparentes et commencer à voir à travers elles.
Il y a aussi ces livres aux pages diaphanes consacrées à un escargot ou bien à des pigeons, de petits êtres familiers évoquant l'univers des contes pour enfants et incidemment quelques états d'âme difficilement formulables : destin esseulé de l'hermaphrodite ou paradoxe d'une créature vivant tantôt à ras de terre, tantôt en plein ciel.
Le travail peut encore prendre la forme d'un livre-ceinture à nouer à sa taille, comme le ferait un voyageur désireux de protéger ses biens les plus précieux en les attachant solidement à lui. C'est un curieux opus fait de longues et fines feuilles formant une boucle, sur lesquelles s'inscrit le souvenir imagé d'un périple nocturne en train : paysages engloutis par l'obscurité auxquels se superpose le reflet fugace du visage de l'artiste dans la fenêtre du compartiment.
Sa série de photographies en noir et blanc « Les mots présents » semble suggérer que tous ses livres ne sont que la version un peu plus développée de ces pensées-bêtes qu'il nous arrive d'écrire au dos ou au creux de la paume de nos mains.
Avec « Mes poèmes préférés », l'artiste transforme la litanies de remontrances affectueuses ou agacées qu'un père adresse à sa fille en un bouquet de haïkus intimistes. Ce sont des mots simples, des expressions familières que nous avons tous déjà entendu avant même de les lire ; une manière pour elle se souligner que « le plus personnel est aussi le plus universel ».
En se réappropriant les traces et les empreintes de défunts inconnus, elle explore aussi la mémoire et le temps de l'histoire. Elle accumule et retravaille des photographies d'enfants anonymes tirées d'images d'archives de la guerre de Corée afin de leur édifier un paisible et souriant mausolée.
Les instants disparus ressurgissent ; de-ci de-là les lueurs vacillantes du souvenir nous guide à travers la nuit de l'oubli. Embarqués sur de frêles esquifs, nous dérivons ensemble au gré des courants sur le fleuve du temps.
