UnSangDong Architects

Gwangju Biennale
Gwangju, Korea
Creating a “theatrical topography” was the goal for the temporary exhibition spaces at the 2004 Gwangju Biennale, according to principal Yoon Gyoo Jang. Inspired by the show’s theme, “A Drop of Water, a Grain of Dust,” the architects designed exhibition booths like the cells of a living object, linked by curvaceous walls and pathways that represent the flow of water. In addition to contemporary art exhibition spaces, the interiors incorporated venues for lectures, parties, and performances.
