Unfold Structure for Forming the Cylinder

2025 



performance



[Unfold Structure for Forming the Cylinder] is a project that explores the transition from flatness to volume, from non-functionality to function.

Function emerges the moment the flat form folds into a cylinder capable of containing objects.
A simple piece of patterned fabric is transformed into a practical mini pocket through the hands-on processes of cutting, folding, and sewing.


Ready keychains are placed on a wheeled cart, displayed like a street stall, ready to greet customers.
The flyer, designed in the form of a receipt, lists the patterns used in the keychains as a ‘material list.’




[기둥 형성을 위한 전개 구조]는 평면에서 입체로, 무기능에서 기능으로 전환되는 과정을 탐구하는 프로젝트입니다.
기능은 평평한 형태가 오브제를 담을 수 있는 원통형으로 접힐 때 생성됩니다.
처음엔 단순한 패턴일 뿐인 천 조각이 자르고 접고 꿰매는 손작업을 거치며, 물건을 담을 수 있는 작은 포켓으로 완성됩니다.


완성된 키체인은 바퀴 달린 카트에 놓여 노점에 진열된 것처럼 손님을 맞이합니다.
영수증 형식을 빌린 플라이어에는 키체인에 사용된 패턴을 ‘재료 리스트’로서 기록했습니다.

CLAPPING GLOVES

clapping gloves
2024


Fabric, d-bond, magnet, wood plate

gloves size :
Dimensions variable


From the nonsense exercise equipment series

Clapping Glove invites participants to explore the absurdity of solo versus shared motion. When worn and used alone, the gloves resist each other—the clap becomes a lonely impact, force against force. But when two people clap together, the gloves seem to draw each other an unexpected sensation of magnetic attraction.

EYE-BALL


Solitary movement
2023




fabric, sponge, motor, acrylic glass, mirror film, camera, Monitor

(Robot size 200x380x180mm)
Variable Installation



 The audience is invited to interact with a small, wheeled robot to search for a tiny onigiri hidden in the corner of the space. As the robot approaches, a sensor triggers the onigiri to spin.

The robot is equipped with a camera that streams live footage to a monitor. The visual feed is deliberately misaligned with the robot’s steering direction, causing its movements to feel disjointed. This disconnection creates a sense of cognitive dissonance as the audience navigates the robot through the space.

EYE-BALL offers viewers awkward perspectives by employing a structure designed to capture motion through object distortion. It enables individuals to experience the expansion and contraction of their vision through the utilization of a concave lens, convex lens, and mirror.
Due to the presence of these distinct two lenses, the images observed through them appear different and vary in size based on their positioning.
Similar to adjusting the lens of a camera to achieve focus, this object is able to make a variable focus, whether it is on a distant object or a nearby one. Consequently, each person possesses a distinct focal point, resulting in different viewing positions.
