Project 04 : Ethereal Reminiscence [Full version - for mobile] H LEE, 2024 

"Ethereal Reminiscence" is a media art piece that symbolically portrays both the physical and the intangible worlds. The work utilizes white lines to create a sense of three-dimensionality within a black void, emphasizing the dynamism of movement through stark black-and-white contrasts. Countless white line objects coalesce into a single entity, their ever-changing forms evoking the dreamlike nature of human memory.
The black-and-white contrast in this piece vividly underscores the ambiguity of memory. The white lines represent the remnants of memories shining in the darkness, while the intense shadows reveal the depth of these memories. These visual elements transform memories and the sense of the past into a fantastical, almost illusory atmosphere.
"Ethereal Reminiscence" blurs the boundaries between the physical and the intangible, offering viewers a novel sensory experience. It transforms the symbolic and conventional aspects of materiality, leading to a reappropriation of consciousness. In essence, it prompts viewers to revisit and re-evaluate memories and emotions that they might not usually recognize, highlighting the significance and meaning these memories hold.
