About the Exhibition
<Loading, Loading, Loading, Connect> is an interactive, non-face-to-face exhibition on the contemporary discourse on communication in the digital age using the game “Animal Crossing” to recreate “Namsangol Hanok Village” into a virtual “Namsangol Island.” The hero, a cyber spirit created with fragments of data, wants to escape an environment that he has never experienced before. But as he tries to escape, he finds himself adjusting to the different environment and learns that it may be possible to communicate with others. Visitors will also learn how to adapt to the new environment, find themselves learning how to communicate, and experience how to form relationships in cyberspace.
Zerogram : Bumgyun Shin, Hayoung Bae, Haeun Song
Zerogram, an artistic community of 3 (Bumgyun Shin, Hayoung Bae, Haeun Song), is focused on how to engage in relationships and behaviors in the digital age. The world of Zerogram’s works utilizes kitsch visuals and begins with visual metaphors of reality. But on the web and in virtual spaces, the stories of the artists and the audience are continuously reproduced. In the end, the virtual world becomes a wholly different dimension of reality in itself.
