Yang titled this sculptural installation *Sallim*—Korean for “household” or “managing a household”—because of the word’s automatic feminine association. This sculptural installation is a 1:1 transposition of the kitchen in the artist’s Berlin apartment, including built-in elements such as a door, a French balcony, a countertop, and a boiler. The space is made with a steel frame, and populating it are both custom-made and mass produced objects—such as an electric fan, light
bulbs, scent emitters, venetian blinds—as well as handcrafted items. This “anti-architectural installation,” as the artist calls it, situates private space within the public realm, considering the noncommercial site of the kitchen as a site of labor.
