    About the Book

    Edit

    Le projet 999 est une tentative de confrontation d’éléments culturels individuels, universels et exotiques ou, plus précisément une tentative de reproduction approximative de repères culturels personnels dans un contexte étranger,

    à partir de moyens locaux, trouvés dans les environs explorés.

    Il reproduit des mythes personnels et universels - dans le contexte local étranger de la Corée du Sud - mêlant les figures très semblables du Kumiho (créature classique des contes coréens) et de Foxy Lady célèbre chanson de Jimi Hendrix à partir d’éléments vernaculaires.

    999 questionne ainsi le devenir des icônes populaires quand elles sont reconstruites à partir de matériaux autres, dans un contexte social différent, quand elle sont immergées dans le creuset de cultures éloignées : lorsqu’elles diluent leur saveur ou révèlent une nouvelle facette de leur géométrie.



    The Project 999 is an attempt to confront individual, universal and exotic cultures, or more precisely an approximate attempt to reproduce personal cultural references in a foreign context, with local resources, found nearby the area explored.

    It reproduces personal and universal myths in the local situation of South Korea, merging the very similar characters of Kumiho (creature from classic Korean tales) and Foxy Lady (Jimi Hendrix’s famous song) from vernacular elements.

    999 is about the alteration of popular icons when they are rebuild from alien materials in a remote social context, while they are getting into the melting-pot of distant cultures; while their flavor is diluted or reveals a new facet of their geometry.
