Ghost Dancers B

Ghost Dancers B is paired with Ghost Dancers A on the first floor, wearing the same rider outfits and helmets Ernst Mo and En Storm wore in the video. As if the two characters jumped out into reality and had been fighting, the broken glasses on the floor and overbearing postures hinting violence allude to an ambivalent reading of the situation between catastrophe and salvation, just like the relationship between the two protagonists. Ghost Dancers A and Ghost Dancers B permeate and multiply in the exhibition space by reflecting the worldview explored in Delivery Dancer’s Sphere, an emblem of the protagonists and an image of another ‘I’ in another possible world.

‹고스트 댄서 B›

〈고스트 댄서 A〉와 쌍을 이루는 작품으로, 영상 속 에른스트 모와 엔 스톰의 라이더 의상과 헬멧을 그대로 착용하고 있다. 두 인물이 현실로 튀어나와 격투를 벌인 것처럼, 혹은 불가피한 사고의 순간을 포착하듯, 엉킨 자세와 바닥의 깨진 유리가 파국과 구원 사이 어딘가에 놓인 두 존재의 양가적 관계를 암시한다.
