About performance
GROUND ZERO Project X OHJOONGSEOK
Just as what is not remembered doesn’t exist, many beings go extinct each moment, leaving only the forms to be remembered.
About synopsis
A story about the memory that exists within spatial and temporal limitations and the beings that are disappearing
A collaboration between Jin.J, the choreographer of GROUND ZERO Project, and photographer OHJOONGSEOK, Extinction is a performance in exhibition form borne out of a continuous collaboration of dance, photography, and exhibition. Addressing the question of what actually exists in reality through the idea of time, the performance discovers the special in the mundane and accumulates memories.
About compapny

They pursue different formats of presentation other than stage performance, such as photography exhibition, installation art and dance film.
Malerisch approach to topics that reflect the contemporary age and provocative mise-en-scene create a singular identity of GROUND ZERO Project.
Reviews
The photographs made me reflect deeply on how human beings hope they are special but can never be eternal or absolute; and how our each moment is so precious. I believe this kind of experiments that resonate with our hearts are continuing the new world of contemporary dance. - Min-hee Lee, fashion VMD
