Dimension Variable

Archive-based installation composed of AI-generated images, historical documents, found photographs, speculative objects, and display structures. Beginning from an IF scenario in which post-IMF Korea took a different political path, the work brings traces of an unrealised world into the present. Through the arrangement of familiar yet estranged visual surfaces, it treats the archive not as a record of what was, but as a constellation of signs through which another historical possibility can be sensed.
