budae-jjigae 부대찌개

budae-jjigae (2021) is Budae-Jjigae delves into the intersections of western imperialism, culinary colonization, and personal reclamation. Through a provocative performance, I embody a Western figure, reimagining processed foods in the stew as tools of both dominance and deconstruction. By dismantling their symbolic power, I confront Korea’s complex post-war relationship with Western influence.
