Step into a captivating digital art experience where Korean artist Ayoung Kim uses CGI, live-action footage, and game engines to create a speculative multiverse. This immersive exhibition explores themes of the gig economy, self-optimisation, and the isolation of networks through the story of couriers navigating a techno-futuristic Seoul.
Visitors will follow the journey of Ernst Mo and her doppelganger En Storm as they escape endless delivery work to transport the abstract concept of time across different dimensions. The exhibition combines cinematic storytelling, videogame technology, app interfaces, and poetry to challenge perceptions of reality and productivity.
This thought-provoking installation is perfect for parents and children interested in digital art, technology, and contemporary social issues, offering a unique blend of visual spectacle and narrative depth.
