서도호 | Do Ho Suh (b. 1962), 카르마 [Karma] (2021), bronze.

This piece was specifically installed for the exhibition DNA: Dynamic & Alive Korean Art at the MMCA, and there is a VR video and explanation from the exhibit on youtube here:

#literally took a day for me to rb this bc the comment with the link was ticking me off bc it goes to a sculpture replica sales site!!!!!#AND that's not even what the piece is stated as being titled on the replica site's listing!!!#that's the SEO optimized description title to drive traffic to them!! AHH #anyway. please clap i had to dig around a fair bit bc there's not much info available in english about the various iterations of karma #fun fact: Suh has this one titled Karma but it's also easily confused with the Karma piece he simplified it from that he made in 2009 #(it's in front of the metro stop for a shopping mall and has FOUR towers of blindfolding crouchers)#but there is also a piece he made in 2003 titled Karma that is a large pair of legs and crowds of miniature people likes its shadow #anyway go look up do ho suh he's got lots of really cool stuff #i didnt even realize it until i was searching pics but i think i've seen a couple of his pieces on tour in cdn musuems before!! very neat #Youtube
