Audio Description: Korean trot music plays from a distance
between the sound of crashing waves. An asserting voice announces in intervals.

Pa-Do (Waves) combines quilted and experimental filmic storytelling to conjure a countermemory to popular American narratives of the Korean people’s autonomy. As the archive and scratched writing emerges from waves framed in the windows of the fabric’s form, the piece transforms the sea into a landscape of history, memory, and dreams of a liberated Korean state from US Military control.
