Description

The artist Anne Duk Hee Jordan (*1978) was born 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 oeuvre, nature is not only a comfort landscape but rather a true orgy of death, exploitation and new beginnings. As a master student of lafur Elasson, she regards thinking in cycles as a prime concern. The volume combines images of her impressive installations, writings on art and literature, together with contributions in the form of essays which examine the characteristic work approach of Anne Duk Hee Jordan from various angles.
