Savina Museum x Koh Sang Woo x Cheongju Zoo 《Still Breathing》

In celebration of Museum Week 2026, Savina Museum presents the special exhibition Still Breathing. Conceived in response to the theme of this year’s International Museum Day, “Museums uniting a divided world,” the exhibition conveys the value of life and the spirit of sharing through the works of Koh Sang Woo, who has turned his attention to the lives and suffering of injured animals. It also attempts to create a moment in which our divided world is bound together through a shared consciousness of equality and solidarity, grounded in the empathetic practice of fully embracing the pain of others as one’s own.

Still Breathing is at once an elegy for lives that are disappearing and declaration that it is not yet too late. By responding to the fragile breaths of vulnerable beings and committing to stand beside the weakest among us, the exhibition conveys a message of hope: through solidarity, we can recover the power to reunify our divided world.
