Seoul Light DDP 2023 Winter
“Digital Naturee”
“Sensibility of coexistence through nature and human technology”
Seoul Light DDP 2023, which began with the question, “Can the real nature that has existed since the beginning and the technological nature created by humanity coexist?”
In December, we aim to portray the primordial essence of nature using digital technology. Using vast silver panels as canvases, we hope to unfold the majestic grandeur of nature, including the sea, forest, and sky. We hope you will discover the true meaning and preciousness of nature, and find a new sense of coexistence with nature as you interact within this magnificent representation of the natural world.

n this digital utopia created by new technologies, nature and humanity begin to coexist. Can humans and nature harmoniously thrive in this beautiful and surreal world crafted by digital means?
‘Digital Atlantis’ is a work by Giantstep that invites us to contemplate the coexistence of humanity and nature and carries a message of moving towards a hopeful future. It envisions a new utopia called “Digital Atlantis,” created through AI technology learning and mimicking the long history of the Earth from the primordial nature. This digital world, born from new technologies, rapidly expands, initiating a beautiful coexistence with nature and offering humans a more convenient foundation for their lives.
However, the nature adorned with digital elements gradually loses its unique vitality and experiences errors in various places. Fortunately, the roots of life, which are exclusive to nature, become a supporting force for destroyed cities. Humans, in turn, learn to coexist with nature through data in this new environment, recover, and envision a future where they live in harmony with nature.
From the sublime primordial nature to the digitalized cityscape and the hopeful future of coexistence with the roots of life inherent in nature, “Digital Atlantis” aspires to create a canvas of hope. It draws inspiration from nature and embarks on a design journey to discover the order between nature and humanity. Through this journey, it aims to awaken a sense of coexistence with nature even within the digital web, highlighting the vitality of nature.
