FiX ON THE UNFiXED : Exhibition Video
Hello, I'm Mingi from ATEEZ.
This time, in collaboration with MCM and FIX ON, I'm holding a photo exhibition.
Thank you so much for coming.
I took these film photos myself, integrated them with everyday objects, and expressed them through an analog technique called cyanotype. Combining the analog elements and legacy that I love, I worked with MCM to bring the gaze and sensibilities I've been quietly collecting into this single space. I think you'll be able to truly feel those sensibilities right here.
As many of my fans probably know, I put a lot of thought into showing my most authentic self through this work. You've seen a lot of the curated version of me, but I wanted to capture the moments and everyday objects I usually record, and share them with you in the most natural way.
Rather than just the finished product, I wanted to showcase the organic flow and the process itself, which is why I prepared this exciting project. Not only can you see the film photos I took and the cyanotype artworks, but more importantly, there's also a listening zone where you can listen to my recently released solo EPs. As you slowly walk through the space, relaxing and enjoying yourself, it will serve as a visual and creative element where you can feel what thoughts I have, and what kind of music and perspective I want to share.
I don't think 'FIX ON' represents a fixed, rigid identity. Change is natural, but what truly matters is holding onto ourselves - not losing who we are - as we change.
As you stroll through, I hope you take in our direction, the music, and everything else here, and just experience it in your own way. However, the core meaning that MCM and I want to convey is exactly this: "Let's not lose ourselves, and let's keep finding our way back to who we are - one step at a time."
I hope this exhibition can be of some help to you in doing that.
