Anne Duk Hee Jordan: The End Is Where We Start from - Paperback

by Barbara Horvath (Editor)

Explore Anne Duk Hee Jordan's immersive multimedia outlook on the intersection of humanity, the greater ecosystem, sex, and harmony.

The artist Anne Duk Hee Jordan was born in 1978 in Korea and grew up in Germany. She argues in a sensuous and humorous manner that we as humans should see ourselves as a part of the ecosystem. Jordan's multimedia immersive installations create a mysterious, and at the same time, whimsical world inspired by marine life, geology, sexuality, procreation, and symbiosis.

In Anne Duk Hee Jordan's artwork, nature is not only a comforting landscape but rather a true orgy of death, exploitation, and new beginnings. As a master's student of ?lafur El?asson, she regards thinking in cycles as a prime concern. The volume combines images of her impressive installations, writings on art, and literature with contributions in the form of essays that examine the characteristic work approach of Anne Duk Hee Jordan from various angles.
