Untitled / Embattled” by Michael Joo (https://www.instagram.com/michaeljoostudio/)
This NFT is one of three digital artworks based on Future Imperfect, a multi-media installation created and shown in 2009. For the sculpture, made after a crippling accident the previous year, I acquired actress Sharon Park’s third flight-suit from the series Battlestar Galactica and ran it through the CT scanning and x-ray equipment used to image my healing injury. The work was installed with a geodesic helmet of live feed cameras examining and broadcasting the space of the absent identity and presented alongside oil paintings of the scans. The original image was taken by Thomas Muller and video compositing for this NFT done in collaboration with Eric Kim. My work always combines the very real with the speculative to attempt to bring us closer to inaccessible things or places and invite questions about our contemporary identities and place in larger ecologies and systems. The actual sculpture’s deterioration was one of the reasons for making these digital works and in keeping with notions of identity and embattled bodies. Audio by Yixuan Shao.
