Abstract in another language
South Korean photographer and artist Onejoon Che has been exploring the relationship between Africa and Asia over the last fifteen years. His internationally renowned projects, exhibitions, and publications cover various aspects of political and individual relations. This chapter provides an insight into his first project, based on the North Korean statues offered to African countries, followed by a film essay based on the life story of Mónica Macías, the daughter of the first president of Equatorial Guinea, who was raised in North Korea. Che further turned his attention to the life stories of African migrant workers in South Korea. His trajectory leads from the documentation of intercultural encounters to mediation processes.
