The Bridge

There are three countries in the world that were or are still splitted into two halves. They are: Vietnam, Korea (North and South), and Germany. Through “The Bridge II” we would like to get people’s attention to the pain and loss caused by the seperation of a country.

On the border line from which the two parts of a country diverge there exist the seperation, random encounters, and the transformation of two counter living objects.

The Bridge centres around the long existing struggles of many generations of the mankind and creators. In addition to that is young people’s thinking about the past, being full of pain, blood and tears; that they never had a chance to witness aside from reading books or being told by someone else.

The Bridge is an effort of using art to present the thinking of the post-war young generation about their country history. It is also an effort to express the reaction of artists-citizens toward the unceasingly transformation of their country.
