Loving Gogh
Loving Gogh
Various Gogh exhibitions are still being held around the world. On the other hand, I started from a different phrase “Gogh did not die yet”, and tried to connect between 1890(the year of Gogh’s death) and 2019 with various factors.
In the first step, I designed three OLED(W77 Model) display as windows inside the original masterpiece - [Ariel’s bedroom, 1889]. And with the help of the Gogh museum in Amsterdam, I had a chance to take photographs form Gogh’s cityscapes, landscapes, and portraits. In conclusion, each OLED window presents the three different Gogh’s viewpoint through modern display. After that, I tried to illustrate the process of the 1890’s star lights have come across to the contemporary space through the exhibition walls. Second, I extracted key colors form original masterpieces and applied as practical graphic elements. Lastly, I made special OLED pixel patterns with extracted colors.
Music - At Gogh’s age, the music sector also wanted to express invisible things, like “light, impression”. So I combined classical music, jazz, and electronica.
Future plan - Form that time on, Gogh museum invited me and wanted to collaborate self-promotive exhibition section in the Gogh museum in Amsterdam.
