sun_set pro_vision video documentation
This is the video documentation of an excerpt of sun_set pro_vision by Yuri Pattison, screened at K-POP Square Media as part of the at K-POP Square program of the 11th Seoul Mediacity Biennale, held from 20 Octoboer to 3 November 2021.
at K-POP Square was a special project within the Biennale’s Network, featuring excerpts from participating artists’ works on the large-scale screen located at K-POP Square in front of COEX Artium in Samseong-dong, Gangnam. Screenings took place twice every hour on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
Participating artists included TASTEHOUSE × WORKS, Pauline Boudry / Renate Lorenz, Eisa Jocson, Yuri Pattison, and C-U-T, each producing or editing 90-second videos tailored to the project’s aims and the characteristics of the media platform. sun_set pro_vision juxtaposes two LED screens sculpturally alongside computer hardware and industrial angles, presenting digitally rendered images of sunrise and sunset from eastern and western perspectives of the same scene. An environmental air quality monitor, Eurad Monitor, measures pollution levels in the atmosphere—capturing real-time data on carbon dioxide, fine dust, and other pollutants—which is then fed into the installation’s hardware. The vivid color tones constantly shift, generating images that appear romantic and harmless, subtly captivating viewers who remain unaware of the ominous environmental data underlying the work.
