The Design
About Elysium Echoes 움직이는 현대 미술 설치 작품
《엘리시움 에코스(Elysium Echoes)》는 환경 변화와 인간 생존의 관계를 탐구하는 회전형 설치 미술 작품이다. 이 작품은 레진, 금속, 아크릴을 주재료로 하며 3차원 프린팅 부품과 회전 모터를 결합해 제작되었고, 크기는 45×45×50센티미터이다. 세 개의 구획은 각각 인간의 형상, 과도기적 형상, 포스트휴먼 형상을 나타낸다. 지속적인 회전은 이 단계들을 해체하고 재조합하며 진화적 변화를 암시한다. 이 설치 작품은 기술과 생태, 그리고 인류의 미래에 대한 성찰을 이끌어낸다.

- Design Challenge
- Elysium Echoes deconstructs the complex bond between humans and nature, prompting reflection on technological progress and its impact on life and evolution. As humanity's influence grows, a crucial question arises: should we reshape nature in the name of technology? Though the "post-human era" remains uncertain, it echoes a warning—our pursuit to replace the Creator may not unfold as envisioned.
- Research
- This research uses a speculative, practice-led approach to explore how technological progress reshapes humanity’s relationship with nature in the Anthropocene. Grounded in post-humanist theory, it critiques ethical ambiguities of ecological intervention and envisions alternative evolutionary paths. Through immersive installation art, kinetic prototyping, and participatory observation, a rotating structure (human/transitional/post-human) simulates evolutionary disruption. Data from 87 interviews, audience analytics, and impact simulations reveal a tension between techno-optimism and ecological humility, with 73% reconsidering humanity’s stewardship. The work advocates for ethical, interdisciplinary governance and positions design as a mediator between science and societal values.
- Inspiration
- In the post-human era, I explore how shifting environments and productivity levels shape human gene selection. Technological progress aids adaptation, yet sudden ecological upheaval risks collapsing our systems, regressing productivity and forcing genetic adaptation to dominate survival. Here, mutation emerges as life’s most reliable tool.
- Project Duration
- London Design Week 14–21 September 2024
Dutch Design Week 19–27 October 2024 - Operation Flow
- This dynamic installation explores biodiversity and evolution in the transition from humans to post-humans. Comprising three parts—human, transitional forms, and post-human—it rotates continuously, disrupting and recombining stages to simulate evolutionary shifts and new species. The work challenges biological boundaries and provokes thought on evolution, technology, and humanity’s future.
