From these roots, the act of applying for something evokes the image of folding oneself to fit a specific form\u2014an experience for the artist where their original grain is lost, overlaid by external demands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In &#8220;Applied Self,&#8221; we face the repetitive cycle of an artist writing endless applications and the transformations that occur within that loop. Between the intersection of resolve and resistance, compliance and surrender, my shape continues to shift, and time flows by a strange, unfamiliar set of rules. Perhaps what the artist\u2019s clock measures is not numbers, but a different scale: the weight of invisible pressure, conditions, or desire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within this space, time does not flow linearly. It stops and restarts; it returns, yet appears in a different form. As independent artists, how do we &#8220;apply&#8221; ourselves to external demands\u2014and what can we still manage to hold onto within that state of being applied?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clarinet\/Performance Nayoung Cheong<br>Violin Juyeon Im<br>Cello Kyungon Yun<br>E-Guitar Hyunseok Kim<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Project &#8220;Application&#8221;, supported by Seoul Foundation for Arts and Culture<br>Premiere November 8th 2025, at Seoul Mullae art center, Seoul, Korea<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"716\" src=\"https:\/\/danbijeung.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/\ucc45-2026\ub144-5\uc6d4-10\uc77c-1024x716.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/danbijeung.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/\ucc45-2026\ub144-5\uc6d4-10\uc77c-1024x716.png 1024w, https:\/\/danbijeung.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/\ucc45-2026\ub144-5\uc6d4-10\uc77c-300x210.png 300w, https:\/\/danbijeung.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/\ucc45-2026\ub144-5\uc6d4-10\uc77c-768x537.png 768w, https:\/\/danbijeung.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/\ucc45-2026\ub144-5\uc6d4-10\uc77c-1536x1074.png 1536w, https:\/\/danbijeung.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/\ucc45-2026\ub144-5\uc6d4-10\uc77c-2048x1433.png 2048w, https:\/\/danbijeung.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/\ucc45-2026\ub144-5\uc6d4-10\uc77c-500x350.png 500w, https:\/\/danbijeung.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/\ucc45-2026\ub144-5\uc6d4-10\uc77c-800x560.png 800w, https:\/\/danbijeung.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/\ucc45-2026\ub144-5\uc6d4-10\uc77c-1280x895.png 1280w, https:\/\/danbijeung.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/\ucc45-2026\ub144-5\uc6d4-10\uc77c-1920x1343.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Applied Self for Ensemble, Performance, Fixed Media and Sound Installation The word &#8220;apply&#8221; originates from the Old French aploier (&#8220;to apply, use, attach&#8221;) and the Latin applicare (&#8220;to attach to, fold, bend&#8221;).
