Solid - Void

The point of view from which we look at things (how we look at things) might be more important than what kind of thing it is. 

Solid - Void is a project that allows objects and spaces to form a positive and organic relationship with the people who use them. I use the concept of solid - void as a medium for this relationship, creating a void space in each object where people can freely project their thoughts and create their own stories. 

Two Realms
The structure of the Two Realms Chair is on the edge of completion and incompletion. The lines of the chair’s structure overlap and are unfinished. People who encountered the Two Realms Chair at the exhibition created their own interpretations and shapes of the chair’s unfinished parts, and I designed it to blur the clarity of its form, conveying different impressions depending on the viewing angle. I wanted the Two Realms Chair to respond to the viewer’s state of mind and be interpreted in various ways. 

Void Cabinet
For Void Cabinet, I concealed most of its structure and form by wrapping it in a thin, soft, translucent silicone. When I designed the Void Cabinet, I hoped that it would do the same thing within the spaces we live in, just as Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s work has created a huge void in the cities and nature, inspiring people and generating questions and stories. People who saw the Void Cabinet in the exhibition came closer to the cabinet to get a better look at the hidden structure and were curious about what was inside the wrapped furniture. I think this was the beginning of a relationship between the Void Cabinet and the people who use it, a relationship that will organically change depending on the viewer’s perspective.
