Indistinct Boundary | Inkyoung Lee

As we approached modern times in trains replaced the water transportation, and Han River became just a boundary which divides north and south cities of the river. Ever since as the boundary of Seoul expanded to how it is now, Han River became the center of the city. Through excessive acceleration and economization, the estrangement is at its peak and we only raise their existence within the consciousness of the dead. I can partially understand the choice of Seoul in choosing an extreme measures known as water front as part of Han River renaissance, but it feels like they have missed a bigger problem. The proposed plan wishes to dim out the boundary by letting Han River soak into a surrounding city. The visual elements advance to outer space to try to interact with people, and become part of a city environment through it. The sensor which takes in and reacts to a specific characteristic of Han River, warmness, coldness, excitement, and pain allowed conveying an image which cannot be possible physically. Recently national pollution regulation policy is being negotiated as air, water, and earth pollution are processing vastly. Technique development to protect and maintain the environment of developed countries are spurring, and are counter acting upon it through development of cooperated environment network with nearby countries and as exemplar countries. Within this, the seriousness regarding water pollution is getting larger by day in Korea, but I believe we are still lacking to secure the basic information, systematic monitoring system/management plan. I wish to create a meaningful view within our space in which commerce dominates and is environmentally friendly in addition to artistic gesture to the automatic water monitoring system.
