Encounters
Another ShotJiyoon looked around. At least the location was cool. It was an old factory and about to be demolished. The canvasses with Eunji's pictures were hanging from the ceiling at different heights. These filled the center of the hall. Another cool thing about the installation was that Chorong had fabrics printed with motives of water and forests that Eunji had done in the past and those were hanging and filling the rest of the space. She liked that part the best. After you were bored of watching the canvasses you could actually walk through the “forest” and get lost.
Chorong was busy to welcome the rich and famous, so she had a look at some of the works. She was looking at one where you could see a bench facing the ocean.
