Damyang-gun Cultural Foundation Opens VR Media Art Exhibition 'REFORM'

Exhibition Operation from the 22nd to February 27th Next Year

[Damyang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Damyang-gun Cultural Foundation Dambit Art Warehouse announced on the 20th that it will open the "REFORM" exhibition on the 22nd.

This exhibition was planned under the theme "Talking about Newness from Oldness" by three media artists and one content planner, allowing visitors to appreciate new forms of sound art, holograms, and VR media art works.

The exhibition began with the idea of discovering that the reality of having to make creative activities a means of livelihood and our ecosystem that must survive in the flood of 21st-century media resemble workers after the Industrial Revolution, defining media artists as another type of worker in the 21st-century cultural and artistic industry era.

This exhibition features the VR media art work "Ink Painting Without Water and Ink (Wasadal 作)," which maintains the form of ink wash painting but reinterprets the expression method through modern media, and the interactive sound sculpture "Across the Garden (Jung Jaeyeop 作)," which finds order at the boundary between noise and sound, displayed in Hall 1 of Dambit Art Warehouse.

The sound art "Seoseokdae (Paul Bazooker 作)," which creates a sculpture of the imaginary Seoseokdae and composes its feeling in the Drone genre, and "water drop (Lee Seongwoong 作)," which reinterprets falling water droplets with simple experimental tools and lighting, are exhibited in Hall 2 of Dambit Art Warehouse.

The exhibition will proceed without a separate opening event and will be operated under strict quarantine management, including mandatory mask-wearing for visitors, temperature checks, and QR code checks in accordance with COVID-19 prevention guidelines.
