Mizin Shin’s work examines the interdependency of manufacturing
and production systems by uncovering and visualizing networks and connections
as an attempt to better understand the complicated phenomenon of economy, a
system intertwined with a large and continually increasing number of other
social entities. By revealing the intrinsic connections among common objects,
the work highlights the idea that all components of our systems are of
significance, from the individual elements to the larger constructs. Though
they can be imperceptible from afar, these relationships are easier to pinpoint
among simple things in our everyday lives.
