Rather than just being an exhibition, Dreamscapes #01 Seoul was an experience, a dare, to get lost into the virtual set of art, design, and technology symbiosis. Think of metal-glass surfaces, surreal objects, 3D-printed sculptures, and high-tech technology, coming out of creative imagination of artistic mind and blending with the past, present, and future.
