.























The grass is greener is based on the post-nature context, transitioning from the built environment to the digital landscape. By using the language of “modelling,” the goal is to analyze how worlds of mixed realities—encompassing the original, the faux, and the virtual—are formed, and how “modelling” functions as an intermediary.

I reinterpret a grassland through material ‘1:1 copy’ and ‘re-mapping’. This process confronts different layers of simulations that constitute the replica (materiality and immateriality, physicality and virtuality, objectiveness and abstraction, 2D-3D -4D (Inter-dimension), etc.)
