Education/Carrers
editIn 1993, she had her first show at UCLA, and it was also her first life-art project. It started with a 3 show in which I pretended to be Deedra Swan, CEO of Deedra Inc., a company that specialized in covert operatives and operations. Electra, the ultimate undercover spy, and Jennifer, Deedra's cigarette roommate, were two additional identities I portrayed, but Deedra was my everyday identity. There were regular newsletters, films, T-shirts, a comic book, and a cocktail party for investors at UCLA's Griffin Commons Grand Ballroom, where Deedra sang in her band, Deedra and the Galaxies, and Electra demonstrated her martial arts talents to investors. Principle 1 of The Revolution Definition of Abundance (2012) and Where I Learned of Love (2012) were released in 2012 as part of the a show at Commonwealth and Council, a Los Angeles art gallery (2012). Moon released The Handbook of Eros as one of her presentation to the Art Museum's Created in LA Biennale show in 2014. (2014). [6] Moon has hosted a quarterly radio talk show on KCHUNG Audio since 2012, initially known as Journeys Within[7] and now known as Adventures With You, where she discusses love, bodily issues, race, trauma, and politics. The Revolution, a "style of being" put forth in two principles, is the cornerstone of Moon's practice for example ; Korean Cultural Center, Los Angeles (2017); Machine Project, Los Angeles (2015); Equitable Vitrines, Los Angeles (2014); and Transmission Gallery, Glasgow, Scotland (2013).
