Under the theme of harmony and balance, “Presence and Persistence” invites 13 teams of artists from Korea and other counties who have shown positive and creative homeostasis, including Helmo (Montreuil) and Miju Lee (Busan). There are also the inhouse Ghost Collective (Seoul), Studio Spass (Rotterdam), Club Sans (Seoul, Reims), Bin Koh (Amsterdam), Simo Tse (Amsterdam), Dongwan Kook (Seoul), Naky Hwang (London), and TUKATA® (Incheon). Works by these artists invited from a number of cities are installed all over the exhibition venue, and Culture Station Seoul 284 connects all these different parts of the event. This part consists of leading works of Typojanchi 2021, expressing the theme “Typography and Life” in the most profound way.

Missing Images
An alternate text is a text string that appears instead of an image that cannot be rendered on the Internet. It is used to show information about an image when the link to the image is lost or when the Internet connection speed is slow. Therefore, an alternative text strives to convey the information of the image clearly in writing. However, the properties of text and images are too different for the text to completely replace the image. This difference is maximized on links where images are lost. A link with only an x-box and alternate text gives viewers a lost image with several word fragments. Based on hints left in the gaps between images and texts, Filed constructs montages of the images that may have been lost for a while, perhaps forever.
