The Art & Culture platform "JIGU-I" aims to awaken sensitivity to life by providing a cultural experience. JIGU-I defines Ecological Art through various art projects: "Earth Eye" (a short film with the theme of 'Eyes' of a child, hope for the future in the destroyed relationship between the earth and humans), "Boat People" (a creative play about the near future of a planet submerged due to climate change), "While Remembering" (a creative play about remembering the extinct beings, summoning them by traditional Korean ritual). Note that "JIGU" means "Earth" in Korean.

Wonyeon Jung's solo exhibition 'Look' 

 

After reading Thomas Berry’s books in People for Earth, the visual artist Wonyeon Jung opened her eyes to the "Creative Spontaneity of Earth" and used this perspective to explore the wilderness in cities in 2023. The exhibition featured two series of drawings: seeds coming to urban dwellers and bugs coming from other countries. It also featured a board game addressed by birds, used to organize the ecosystems in the urban areas. A set of paintings of what the artist witnessed in an artificial wetland were also demonstrated during the exhibition.
