Dasein – Born to Be Human
8 films
The exhibition takes “the human” as its central theme, reflecting on what it means to exist as a person in this world. It focuses on the intricate, interwoven relationships between self and self, self and others, and self and both physical and virtual environments.
The exhibition title borrows from the existential concept of Dasein, or “being there,” to explore humanity’s presence in the here and now. Through this lens, the exhibition opens up multi-layered philosophical inquiries into the human condition and the nature of existence.
In extending this curatorial theme, Jut Art Museum collaborates with Giloo, inviting participating artists to curate a selection of eight remarkable films that center on the question of being human. These works return to the essence of what it means to live as a person—interpreting, reflecting, and questioning the many dimensions of humanity, and inviting audiences to contemplate the meaning and possibilities of being born human.
