Busan MoCA Barrier-Free Exhibition Seeing with Ten Fingers Performance

Between Hands-Tangling Knots

As commemorating the opening of Seeing with Ten Fingers, Busan MoCA’s barrier-free exhibition, we prepared a special performance.

Raphaëlle de Groot is contemporary artist from Canada. The artist has stayed in Busan from 5 days ahead, preparing, and mainly uses self-created objects, discarded materials collected around Busan and received leftovers from other participating artists in the performance.

The performance gradually progresses as artist blindfolds herself, transforming her own body by interacting with audiences and prepared objects. The work induce a direct communication with audiences through unexpected circumstances and the act of ‘creation’.

The suggested theme of the exhibition, ‘accessibility’ and ‘magnanimity’, is dynamically and playfully delivered by Raphaëlle de Groot’s performance and we invite you to this live experience.
