    Exhibition space in the art campus north of King’s Cross. Lightroom is an immersive cinema with four very tall walls of app 8 metres high and 20 metres wide. 20 projectors in the ceiling are covering walls and floor.

    South Korean exhibition installed in London. 12 installations, most of them with projections – up to four projectors per artwork. Unique naïve picture language which seems quite exotic in this hemisphere. Looks like the installation is a commercial window to Seoul encouraging spectators to go there.
