There’s something a little timeless about Min Jeong Seo’s work - like a moment that is just plucked from the air. She plays with classic imagery - for example, high heels or the Statue of Liberty - and gives them a modern, updated twist. In this example, To Live On, the stems of the roses are actually dead, but the blooms continue to thrive. There’s a commentary in there about life and death, and the advances of medical science.
