Like Swallowing 100 Sweet Potatoes | Egg, Paint & Anger | Whitewash [Contemporary Smile Art Gallery]

A white plaster bust stands in front of a blank canvas.
Paint-filled eggs fly toward it — bursts of color, frustration, and revolt.
Then, the hammer falls. The figure shatters.
What remains is cleaned, repainted white — as if nothing ever happened.

“A record of anger that tastes like dust — and silence painted white.”

This video performance reflects the suffocating power of control and the helpless anger buried beneath.
Like swallowing 100 sweet potatoes — you can’t breathe, can’t scream, yet can’t stop.

※ Korean text “개새끼”
The final scene of the video features the Korean text “개새끼” (pronounced gae-sae-kki), a Korean curse word meaning roughly “son of a bitch.”
Here, the phrase is not used as mere profanity, but as an expression of despair and defiance against power — a raw, emotional outcry toward authority and oppression.

🎨 한글 번역 (Korean Translation)

흰 캔버스 앞, 석고상에 물감이 든 계란이 던져진다.
터지는 색, 분노, 저항.
망치가 내려치고, 석고상은 부서진다.
그리고 그 자리는 깨끗이 청소되고, 흰색으로 덧칠된다.
마치 아무 일도 없었던 것처럼.

"먼지 같은 분노의 기록 — 흰색으로 덮인 침묵"

이 영상은 권력의 통제와 그 아래에서 느끼는 무력감,
그리고 욕이 터져 나오는 현실을 담았다.
— 고구마 100개 먹은 듯 답답한 세상에 대한 기록.
