White Cube Interface: Four Laboratories
15. Jänner bis 15. März 2026 G.MAP (Gwangju Media Art Platform), Südkorea
Interface Culture Studiernde Lee Yuseung stellt in Südkorea aus. Im Zuge der G.MAP (Gwangju Media Art Platform) New Wave exhibition wird ihr Projekt Cycle of emotions (Dot, Color, Plane, Flow) gezeigt.
The Cycle of Emotions is an interactive installation where visitors become co-creators, transforming their emotions into pictorial abstraction through AI. The work begins with a fundamental question: Can AI perfectly quantify human emotion? The artist's answer is no—yet this incomplete data offers a new lens through which to view emotion, serving as raw material for creativity rather than evidence of truth. Like Kandinsky establishing the visual language of abstraction, the artist reinterprets collected data through unique pictorial rules.
The work unfolds through four stages: Dot, Color, Plane, and Flow.
Dot: NLP technology extracts emotional coordinates from audience text input, mapping language into numerical space.
Color: FER technology reads facial expressions in real time, translating emotional states into chromatic values.

Plane: The artist's subjective vision intervenes—text and data transform into evolving abstract forms of shapes and colors. © Lee Yuseung
Flow: In a 3-channel immersive projection, emotions once reduced to numbers flow back as waves of light and sound—completing the cycle from quantification back to artistic experience.
