Business Overview
The Intuitive Beauty of Natural Phenomena and What Can Be Seen Beyond Their Logical Depths Since ancient times, human beings have sought to "understand nature itself" and have evolved in a manner driven by intellectual curiosity. These activities have developed by subdividing them into various fields such as science and art. On the other hand, since natural phenomena are indivisible, it is also true that as a result of this division of fields, there are many fragments that cannot be picked up in any field. At nor, we focus on the contradictions and dilemmas between science and art in order to understand and experience natural phenomena themselves, and work to create new values without denying either of them (Aufheben of science and art). In this exhibition, we will present "Syncrowd," a work inspired by the recent intermittent social upheaval, crowd psychology, and awe at the laws of nature that create them. We hope that by experiencing this work, which was created using a scientific phenomenon called the synchronization phenomenon, and by having conversations with our members, you can think about the natural phenomena hidden inside and outside the work and in everyday life.
