Here and Elsewhere (2016)

Here and Elsewhere by Jung Yeondoo is a series of multi-layered collaged photo works based on interviews with some immigrants in the southeastern suburbs of Paris, which the artist conducted during his residency at the MAC/VAL Museum in France in 2016. The artist captured the experiences of the immigrants in their present life and the expectations and emotions in their past memories before leaving in this work, which invites the audience to listen to their voices.
