JURY COMMENTS:
Comments are about various projects and/or the overall competition
“With such a charged setup, the competition poses difficult questions and issues for architecture. The more successful submissions were ones that tried to address the conflict through spatial programs, scenarios, and narratives.”
“ [The project] points to the illegibility and the illegitimacy that is experienced by one side toward the other.”
“The projects are also gestural in creating intense metaphorical experiences in an overall peaceful grandeur for a proposed unity.
“The [project] offers opportunities for collective and individual experiences that intertwines in tactical ways.”
“The powerful tension between large scale object and human body can be read as a sublime commentary about the DMZ zone.”
“While the new entry on the ground recreates the political segment as part of the history, the underground space introduces a new field that is multi-directional or non-directional, where people can reorient, communicate, and unify.”
“words gallop thousands of miles without legs” “Rumors, gossips, fragments amplified into space and spatial experience. Fear, terror, joy anger all stems from it. A great commentary of the current situation…( I am hearing it )”
“ [The project] tells a story of relationship of human conditions with different ideologies in a theatrical and performative manner, where space itself exists as both functioning utilitarian bath and theater.”
“Similar feeling to James Turrell’s Power of Sky – movement isolation, inability to escape, confined, controlled, and sacred. Simplistic, emotional and powerful contrasts with the craziness of what this man-made division represents.”
“The division of Korea, and the location, remains extremely emotional and use of this space releases that tension.”
