Hyo Sik Cho Director, Wooyang Museum of contemporary Art

The Wooyang Museum of Contemporary Art is proud to present “Bodily ARTivity,” an exhibition that allows the
viewer to proactively perceive and experience art through their own body.

The four teams of artists (ARISONG, Jin Kyung Chong, Won Pyo Hong and STUDIO 1750) involved in the exhibition,

all of whom are actively producing works of contemporary art, are known for their unconventional visualizations of their
thoughts, perspectives, and imaginations. Their creations are completed only through visitors’ physical participation,
which is an intentional attempt to expand the realm of artistic value and possibility. I hope “Bodily ARTivity” provides
some respite (even if only for a short time) from the body, which continues to be denied complete freedom of movement

due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, and multi-sensory stimulation, enhancing what visitors take away from the
exhibition.

The Wooyang Museum of Contemporary Art will continue serving as a medium for all who wish to understand art as

not a passive entity but something that is woven into the fabric of our lives. I would especially like to thank the featured
artists and everyone else whose efforts made this exhibition possible.

Thank you.
