L'Homme Révolté

Letting my breath blossom, I cultivate myself.

The viewpoint shaped by what you search for

We become stars and wind, eternally bound to one another

Countless social narratives every day around us: are you simply observing, or are you a part of them?

Amid the dropped gun and the lit flame, our prayers find their starting point.

Embracing body and mind with sening hug, breathing new vitality into the daily lives of modern people

Finding myself through others, an identity in constant flux.

Discovering who you truly are; a focused ritual of time alone

The Intersection of Body and Senses, The Resonance of Memory.

Action shapes idea

Modern individuals are constantly grappling wiht self-esteem issues. We unknowingly shrink ourselves, often without realizing it. Yet, restoring self-esteem is no easy feat. When it comes to reclaiming self-esteem, what actions should take precedence?

This conceptual chair combines design with psychology to automatically encourage a confident posture upon sitting, without conscious effort for the user. Inspired by the notion that emulating success can lead to its actualization, this modern and minimalistic piece fits any setting. Scientifically designed to adjust the body's alignment for a confident demeanor, it also focuses on psychological comfort through the use of warm colors and sustainable materials. Beyond a piece of furniture, this chair serves as a tool for personal growth, enabling users to start their day with confidence and embrace their potential fully.

Small moves can bring about big changes in the mind

2021

When we feel depressed, the best way to escape from it is to change the environment. For example, it could be
exercising or taking a shower or eating something delicious. When I'm depressed, I exercise to get out of it and turn on the candle after taking a shower. Then I thought it would be fun if there was an object that make my body move and expose some smell from it. So, Jegichagi, a traditional Korean game, and a container containing diffuser liquid with great scent were combined to make a Jegichagi diffuser. In order to give off a scent, you have to kick this object repeatedly as if you were kicking a ball, and after a few repetitions, the scent is on the sponge inside, so you can enjoy the scent after. It looks like a small movement, but the most important thing in a depressed state is to move even a little. This item will help you ventilate the gloomy thoughts you have in mind.

Whenever I saw gun accidents that often
appear on the news, I thought I wanted to
neutralize the physical properties of guns.
Even if they point guns at each other, the guns
do not face each other but fall on the floor.
Also, people sometimes light candles in front
of them when praying. I expressed my hope
that such tragic events would no longer occur.

Lunar dust presents a significant risk to the International Space Station (ISS) systems as it adheres to surfaces and can cause deterioration. The electrostatic force generated by dust particles can exceed gravitational force and van der Waals force of adhesion, causing it to levitate and detach from surfaces. The Apollo missions faced problems with dust clogging mechanisms, obscuring vision, contaminating equipment, and causing inhalation vand irritation. Engineers proposed the Electronic Cuff Checklist (ECC) to replace the paper-based version, but it had limitations such as data loss and digital system failures. A passive technology approach is needed. Understanding how astronauts handle the Cuff Checklist is crucial to improve its feasibility. The Checklist is worn on the EMU and contains reference information for EVA tasks. Pressurized and tough EMU gloves reduce strength and dexterity performance, requiring astronauts to pinch the pages to flip them. Gaps and pockets on the EMU and Checklist collect the most dust, and the relationship between the charge property of lunar dust and Checklist materials needs to be considered to design an ideal dust mitigation system. The objective of this project is making a comfortable, secured, and dust-mitigating updated cuff checklist for astronauts.

Ritual Routine Practice Maker for your well-being based on your own life-routine.

This work captures the moment in which the act of observation and being observed breaks down the boundaries between self and others. It reminds us that we are always evolving, influenced by everyone we meet and everything we experience. Over time, we incorporate diverse perspectives, values, and even subtle behavioral cues into ourselves.
Ultimately, this piece highlights our interconnectedness, inviting us to reflect on the richness of a self formed not in isolation, but within a dynamic network of relationships. We become aware that the self we see in the mirror—yesterday, today, and tomorrow—is a fluid composite shaped by the loves, empathies, and shared experiences that define our humanity.

Modern individuals often lead busy lives and tend to overlook how they feel and their current state. However, mindfulness, even if for a short period, can have the effect of soothing and managing the mind while allowing the body to stay in a relaxed state. Mindfulness can involve a meditative approach, but it also plays a role in helping us ease tension and create mental space in our daily routines. When the mind is stressed, it affects the body as well, and this vicious cycle repeats. I propose a product that can help break free from this cycle

The idea was to divide our exhibition space into two :
an area representing a backstage and the other representing
a stage. The viewer can only walk around the
backstage and will be able to see, through some holes
on backstage walls, objects telling uncomfortable stories
placed on the stage. Some may feel strong empathy
and some may just walk around, however we decided to
focus on the attitude of the viewers while exiting the exhibition.
The backstage walls act like those curtains and
bring the viewer back to reality after having peeped
through the holes. However , we wanted to question the
viewer if what we placed on the stage can actually be
easily separated from our reality. Thus we wanted to
make the observer try to differentiate our reality with
the ‘fake’ reality that we created inside the walls.

wsensor technology, this piece captures the essence of infinite atoms in the universe. As visitors approach the installation, the videos react by dissolving into particle-like atoms, as if looking through a train station window into another world. When viewers move away, the video returns to its original state, displaying natural elements—perhaps representing your beloved ones in another form. This dynamic interplay of presence and absence poignantly illustrates the eternal journey of matter, emphasizing that even in parting, there is the promise of new beginnings. “Eternal Promise” invites participants to reflect on the continuity of existence and our enduring connection to the cosmos. The installation encourages a deeper understanding of the universality of life’s cycles, portraying the interconnectedness of all things and the infinite narrative of the cosmos. Moreover, the concept emphasizes that our loved ones are always around us in some form, their essence interwoven with the fabric of the universe. Even though they may not be with us in their original form, their atoms continue to exist, becoming part of the air we breathe, the trees we see, and the stars we gaze at every night. This perspective offers comfort and a sense of eternal companionship, reassuring us that the bonds we share are never truly broken and that love persists beyond physical existence. This work addresses the themes of life, death, and rebirth, while also providing solace to its audience, reminding them that those they love remain with them in some way, eternally part of the universe.

This application visualizes the gradual formation of a personalized, biased information sphere as the user continues to search and interact with various content. Each data point is represented as a bubble, whose clarity and prominence adjust based on the user’s search history, clicked links, and ongoing interactions. Over time, related subjects that receive the user’s focus become sharper and move toward the center of the diagram, while loosely connected or neglected content grows increasingly blurred, drifting to the periphery. By dynamically altering visual attributes—such as opacity, scale, and position—the interface provides an intuitive understanding of how individual search behaviors and accumulated data lead to filter bubbles. Through this shifting landscape, the user can perceive not only the immediate consequences of their online actions, but also the subtle, long-term biases that shape their information environment.

When in motion, it functions as an ordinary necklace without any noticeable changes. However, the moment the wearer pauses, the gyroscope sensor detects the “state of stillness” and activates a mist-emitting device. This hazy display visually conveys the message: “When we remain stagnant, we stagnate and decay ourselves.” Just as Sisyphus endlessly pushes his boulder uphill, life often feels like a repetitive cycle of meaninglessness, yet we have no choice but to keep moving forward. It is this continuous movement that prompts self-reflection and ignites a small spark of hope for the future. Through this necklace, we aim to illustrate that “stillness” signifies stagnation and regression, while “movement” represents growth and determination.
