The Nam Center for Korean Studies had the pleasure of hosting residencies that showcase Korean arts. Guests of many different disciplines have taken part. To list a few we’ve been joined by Asian American activist and dancer, Peggy Choy, who combines interdisciplinary work of activism, martial arts, and dance; JuYeon Kim, sculptural artist who created WiAn: White Garden With White Noise, an installation of meditative poetry, a soundscape by classical music composer George Tsontakis, and sculptural objects; and Mia Chung, award winning playwright who wrote, You for Me for You, and took part in our event entitled, "A Conversation on North Korea as Artistic Inspiration."
The Nam Center Signature Artist Residency Program was supported by the Core University Program for Korean Studies through the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Korea and Korean Studies Promotion Service of the Academy of Korean Studies (AKS-2016-OLU-2240001).
