This portrait of the artist was taken during her performance in Kitakyushu, Japan. Kimsooja’s body follows the curvature of the rock, becoming a line that connects and divides the earth and the sky. By lying faced away on the edge of nature, she places her horizontal body against the viewers’ standing behind. Kimsooja considers her body as an axis through which movement and stillness, self and others, horizontality and verticality are measured. It is a symbolic cross, or a crossing of dualistic realities. This performance also takes place in nature in relation to her first performance, A Needle Woman (1999), presented in the Studio, where she stands still against waves of crowds in different cities.
이 작품은 김수자가 일본 기타큐슈에서 수행한 퍼포먼스 중 촬영된 것이다. 작가의 몸은 바위의 곡선을 따라가며 땅과 하늘을 연결하고, 또 그 둘을 가르는 하나의 선이 된다. 자연의 경계에 등을 대고 누운 그녀의 수평적 신체는 그것을 보고 있는 관람자의 수직적 자세와 대비를 이루며 자리한다.
김수자는 자신의 신체를 움직임과 정지, 자아와 타자, 수평성과 수직성을 가늠하는 하나의 축으로 간주한다. 이는 상징적 십자형상이자, 이원적 현실이 교차하는 지점에 대한 은유적 표상이다. 또한 이 퍼포먼스는 스튜디오에서 소개된 그녀의 첫 퍼포먼스 〈바늘여인〉(1999) — 여러 도시의 군중 속에서 정면을 향해 정지해 서 있는 작업 — 과 긴밀히 연관되며, 자연 속에서 이루어지는 또 다른 변주로 읽힌다.
