Euljiro Attriae Gallery Hosts 'Sangsang' Exhibition

Seoul Facilities Corporation to Exhibit Over 40 Works by 7 Young Artists from October 5 to November 20, Featuring Some AR (Augmented Reality) Pieces

[Asia Economy Reporter Jong-il Park] Seoul Facilities Corporation (Chairman Seong-il Jo) will hold the exhibition "Imagination - A Simple Way to Make Dreams Come True" at Euljiro Attriae Gallery starting from the 5th.

Euljiro Attriae Gallery is an exhibition space with a total floor area of 230㎡ created by Seoul Facilities Corporation on the underground walkway walls between Euljiro 4-ga Station and Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station on Subway Line 2.

The exhibition, running until November 20, features 43 paintings and illustrations by seven young artists (Eli Lee, Lina Park, Yurim Kim, Moa Son, Haneul Kim, Yeon-i Noh, and Soi) under the theme of "Imagination."

This exhibition was planned with the purpose of stimulating imagination through young artists' artworks for citizens experiencing restricted daily life due to COVID-19.

Visitors can experience works that reinterpret unfamiliar phenomena or objects through the perspectives of the seven young artists.

The exhibition is broadly divided into two sections: "New Birth" and "Reconstruction of Space."

In the "New Birth" section, newness is explored and sought within familiarity, giving birth to unique new stories through this process.

The "Reconstruction of Space" section freely transforms situations within a three-dimensional scope through the artists' perspectives.

For example, artist Eli Lee expresses a healing message freely with her unique characters and a wide spectrum of colors in her work "Heal me."

Additionally, Moa Son expresses her own utopia by combining landscapes of the real world and ideal worlds in her work "The View Seen by Three."

Notably, some works (13 pieces) by three artists (Eli Lee, Yeon-i Noh, Soi) can be viewed as AR (Augmented Reality) artworks using the smartphone application "Artivive." Motion graphics, which use animation techniques on photos and images to create movement, add imagination and fun to fixed artworks. By downloading and running the "Artivive" app and pointing the camera at the artworks during the exhibition period, visitors can enjoy motion graphic-enhanced works.

Artivive is a platform providing solutions for creating and viewing artworks using augmented reality. It is available for download on Google Play and the App Store.

Seong-il Jo, Chairman of Seoul Facilities Corporation, said, "This exhibition allows you to appreciate unique works by young artists," adding, "Seoul Facilities Corporation will continue to strive to make Euljiro Attriae Gallery a cultural space that offers relaxation and healing amid busy daily life."

The exhibition is free for all citizens to visit.

More detailed information about the exhibition can be found on the Seoul Facilities Corporation website.

Seoul Facilities Corporation manages and operates 25 underground shopping malls in Seoul. To prevent COVID-19, it conducts daily disinfection work at each mall and operates "On-site Disinfection Days," ensuring systematic and thorough disinfection activities to guarantee citizens' safety.
