Dichroic Wave

*As part of the Gwangju Folly Renewal Project(2020-2021), this work will be renewed to present the existing "Infinite Elements(Kook, Hyoung-Gul+Syn, Sue Gyeong, 2016)" under the new name of the work at the new place.

Dichroic Wave aims to capture the ever-changing natural light and the movement of light and wind in three-dimensional space and form. It is a three-dimensional space structure that shows different appearances depending on the viewing direction and is continuous without distinction between inside and outside. The space between the structures is filled with small dichroic windmills that reflect light and show different colors depending on the viewing direction. Depending on the intensity of light and wind, depending on the viewing location and direction, and depending on the time and weather, Dichroic Wave constantly changes and moves as if it were a part of nature. It is a natural sculpture that is an object but also becomes one with the surrounding nature.

Infinite Elements under the Universe, above the Earth Time and DNA.

Infinite Elements is a sculpture that represents a gigantic creature that infinitely travels time in the past, present and future. The steel frame shaped as an infinite loop symbolizes time, a physical and environmental infinite element and the LED helix of DNA, a biological infinite element. The art piece as a whole embodies a living creature that continues to evolve in the endless loop. This folly combines an architectural sculpture as hardware and media art as software and finally comes to life as the body or hardware meets the soul or software. Infinite Elements is designed to show images in the LED strips covering the orbit of the endless loop, realizing a huge body of images in a streamlined shape rather than utilizing flat surfaces and straight lines. The folly is a living creature in the urban space that harmonizes with and represents the citizens.
