[Conference Poster Art Works by Pop Artist NANCY LANG]

Taboo Yogini Space Coco

Pop artist Nancy Lang herself became the Taboo Yogini and displayed an exceptional performance project ‘Uninvited Dreams and Conflicts – Taboo Yogini’. She went on to create a character called Taboo Yogini as a canvas 2D artwork.

Taboo Yogini is the guardian guard that grants people’s dreams. It uses all the energy it has to fulfill the dreams of the person looking at the artwork, makes a ‘sacrifice’ of ‘death’ and resurrects as a new Taboo Yogini. Over the past 20 years, Nancy Lang’s signature artwork genre has been purchased by many famous collectors such as idol Key of SHINee, Kolon Group Chairman Lee Woong-Yeul, fashion designers, professors, doctors, and so forth, and it is still being widely collected today.

‘Taboo Yogini’, which represents a god-like being that is tabooed is the spiritual messenger between God and human beings that has the combined images of angels and demons. Here, the word taboo means ‘something that is considered as a taboo’ and ‘Yogini’ originated from a Sanskrit word which has the lexical definition of ‘angel’ or ‘Satan’. In other words, Taboo Yogini has the meaning of being immortal, and the artist create her works with her earnest hope that dreams of everyone in the world including her own come true.

 

 

The title of artist Nancy Lang’s artwork in the poster of the international joint conference of APCATS, AJSAE & AAME is ‘Taboo Yogini Space Art’. Contrast technique was used to express the innocent face of a child and a burning heart inside a cold robot body. The faces of a little girl and a boy connote pure spirit, and this refers to the beginning of human beings in a new universe like the God’s creation, Adam and Eve. Placed on the shoulders of the wings of the body are Bubble Coco, the pop art cat. Bubble Coco is cheering for the artist’s earnest wish and passion for the humanity’s dreams for space. This symbolizes love for mankind that the future generations of the new space age should have. It is a harmonious beginning of the mechanic and the organic. The satellite and the launch vehicle in the legs combine with the body of Taboo Yogini to represent launch vehicle of Innospace (@innospacecorp) and ultra-small satellite of Observer 1 (@naraspace.official) developed by representative start-up companies in Korea, to hope for the day that they become the strong wooden legs that pioneers the field of ‘space art’ that the artist visions in the near future, and popularizes it in the new space age.

 

The cat ‘Bubble Coco’ is a character work that sublimates Coco Chanel, a cat that has been together for a long time on Nancy Lang’s shoulders as an icon of happiness. Over the past 20 years, Coco Chanel has become the most famous and recognized cat known by all the country. Nancy Lang and Coco Chanel were being together through every exhibitions, performance art works, and moreover showing on TV broadcasts. Now, Bubble Coco is Nancy Lang’s persona that can crosses time and space freely, no longer ages.

Artist Nancy Lang’s Taboo Yogini Space Coco became the fascinating symbol of overcoming all obstacles that Korea Aerospace faces on its way toward the future. The history of humanity enriched our lives with the development of art that followed the development of civilization in science, and with the beginning of civilization in aerospace, a new field called ‘Space art’ will be created.
