Object Marriage
2017-2018Performance
The project is a 20-minute performance directed and designed by Céline Minkyung Park. It is a collaborative project with various artists and a scientist. The project speculates a fictional scenario of ‘What if … marriage to objects conformed more strictly to the societal rules?’ In this project, Céline has imagined a dystopian society where objectophiles can only marry the objects they love once they are qualified.
