Euphoria
Hwayong Jung

Euphoria delicately reflects on the collapse of nature and the unique visual language of technology. The video gathers aesthetic forms and patterns found in our environment and recreates them using computer simulation. Code-generated terrain, endless mazes and ruptured images transform and blend into a giant organism that continuously changes and reproduces, giving rise to a new digital scene. This mesmerizing virtual sphere has no beginning and no end.
