Nayoung Kang draws attention to ‘care labor' and the relationships it fosters, delicately capturing the physical and emotional tensions that arise within this framework. Her work reveals how the ordinary routines of daily life can demand immense physical strength and mental focus for some. Kang questions the notion of caregiving as a solely familial duty. In her exhibition A Sunday Outing, Kang traces the process of accompanying a family member with a disability on a day out, unraveling its layered psychological dimensions through narrative-driven video and installation. She reflects on the burdens placed on those who care for non-normative bodies, investigating the social frameworks that give rise to these obligations, while exploring ways to translate the act of care into a contemporary visual language.
