Artist-in-residence lays her tracks in light

By Deborah Bernstein | February 1, 1999

Artist-in-residence Jin Soo Kim chose a unique position to contemplate her work displayed at the Hopkins Center -- she physically sat on her installation, entitled "tracks." Kim perched on the end of the railroad tracks spread across the Jaffe-Friede Gallery floor as she discussed the meaning of her piece and her term at the College as the artist-in-residence. The art, consisting of railroad tracks and over 420 light bulbs laid out on the bare wood floor, stands for many things, Kim said. The bulbs are either lit, unlit or broken at random, and can represent life, the hope of life or death. Kim has left the interpretations of the work up to its viewers, but said the piece may inspire memories of trains that went to Nazi death camps in World War II. "I want people to think of what the train has meant to life and the human experience," Kim said. Kim said in creating the piece she thought about how trains have connected people throughout history and how they allowed people to "keep track of each other." Kim said people find their own meanings in her work.
