Sung Neung-kyung has made deliberately marginal, semiprivate photo installations and performances since the late '60s. The thread that links his works of that time to those of the present--from the landmark, frequently reconstructed installation Newspapers: From June 1, 1974, On, 1974, to Shadows of Distraction, 2001--is his consistent memorialization of minute experience in the very process of dismantling his own, always increasing artistic authority. In other words, Sung has deflected attention onto anything and everything, accumulating vast archives of newspaper clippings, bad photographs, and clown personae to avoid reifying the cultural categories of art and artist.
