Nomigedanzoken

NOMIGEDANZOKEN (republic of thinking) is a multimedia installation art work which involves painting, sculptures, hologram projections and experimental music. The artist is inspired by classical philosophy of materism, idealism and dualism.etc. She came up with a idea that once if there is an extreme situtation which there is only one kind of substance exist. In that case, how should we discuss about what kind of form ( mind or material) is it and also think about the paradox that when everything is same but also different. NOMIGEDANZOKEN is a fictional world which built up of thoughts of either material or mind form. Thoughts can exist either independently or compositely and thinking is the only energy source and activity within the territory.

1.NOMIGEDANZOKEN has no origin and ending.

The thoughts are always transforming.

2.A thought (material) can generate a thought (mind).

A thought (mind) can generate a thought (material).

3.The only activity in NOMIGEDANZOKEN is thinking.

4.The reality is totally subjective and based on a citizen’s own thoughts.

5.The senses are driven by thinking and are subjective.

6.Each particle of thought can live individually or collectively.

7. A citizen is living only if it thinks itself exists.
