Koreans believe that people born in the Year of the Snake are smart. Because in the Chinese zodiac, the snake symbolizes wisdom. However, stories about snakes usually portray snakes as scary creatures. The appearance of snakes, the aggressiveness of some snakes, and their deadly venom have created an instinctive fear in humans. Therefore, snakes are portrayed as creatures that follow the transcendent and punish evildoers. Although humans are afraid of snakes, they also believe that snakes are sacred. This is because I am amazed by the way snakes grow by shedding their skins and their survival instincts of disappearing in winter and reappearing in spring. Due to these characteristics, snakes travel between different dimensional worlds and are even considered sacred creatures that bring blessings and prosperity to humans. In this way, snakes have become scary and righteous, disgusting and wonderful, familiar and sacred, and live with us. To celebrate the Year of the Snake, this exhibition attempts to examine the lives of humans who live with snakes. I hope you have a prosperous Lunar New Year and everything goes according to plan, overcoming the complex human mind and creating a thousand faces for an animal called snake.

"Cinema Paradiso (Immersive Special Exhibition)" is a global touring exhibition jointly planned by Korea Forest International and Italy's Crossmedia Group to celebrate the 140th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between South Korea and Italy in 2024.

The departure hall of the airport is a place where many people gather with excitement and anticipation. The starting point is the same, but each person's journey unfolds differently. This exhibition is an exhibition that looks back on the past 10 years of Seoul Design Foundation open curating that has provided creative opportunities to creators and supported their journeys at that starting point. What paths have the artists walked, and what meaning do their experiences in their journeys contain? What will the next 10 years look like? So, shall we go together to DDP Gallery Moon? This moment of departure together will be the starting point of new creation!
