Wednesday 11th February, 6:30 – 8:30pm: Eunjo Lee Moving Image Commission Preview

In collaboration with HERVISIONS, Shoreditch Arts Club is pleased to host a special preview evening of a new moving image commission by South Korean artist Eunjo Lee <이은조>.

The trilogy of new works titled The First End, The Blind Noon and The Last Origin explore cycles of death and rebirth in the tangible, mythical and digital realms. Three non-human beings—The Keeper, The Eaten One, and The Birthing One—traverse landscapes of ruins, temples, and divine factories, each pursuing a fragmented internal image inherited from the collective unconscious. Through ritualistic transformations, they ultimately converge in a shared space, yet fail to recognise one another—revealing the rupture of shared mythology in our fragmented digital present.

‘In this work I redirect the defining brevity and loops of short-form media toward mythmaking, questioning whether the collective visualisation of ancient rituals remains accessible amidst our algorithmic feeds. By prioritising archetypal resonance over narrative comprehension, the work’s rapid pace opens a passage that returns us to a pre-linguistic, communal image.’ - Eunjo Lee

HERVISIONS founder Zaiba Jabbar will curate works exploring rebirth and desire, with the unique trilogy commission by artist Eunjo Lee across our prominent screens, and a complementing cinema screening of Sofia Albina Novikoff Unger’s short film Agony of Eros / DRIFT.
