Daeng'gi Kimchi Factory - Dec. 22

"Daeng'gi Kimchi Factory is a performance--installation piece where I will be taking chopped off daeng'gi braids ( a traditional Korean hairstyle that was once worn by adolescent girls) for cabbage, and make my own special version of kimchi. This piece confronts the male-dominated traditions of the past and investigates the state of women in Korea today. This piece will be accompanied by several live performances"

Performance Dates are as follows:
                                                  Dec 22- 5-7pm,
                                                  Dec. 30 3-4pm,
                                                  Jan 6, 3-4pm, and
                                                  Jan 13 3-4pm.




CUCHIFRITOS Gallery and Project Space is located at 120 Essex Street, inside Essex Street Market between Rivington and Delancey Street.

We are very excited for your exhibition, Flora! See you on Dec. 22 for the opening
