"code of engagement in flat forests" is an immersive and transformative artistic journey that transcends the traditional boundaries of space, movement and time. Building upon Hea Min Jung’s work, ‘code of engagement’ (2024), this project invites participants into a dynamic space where geometric patterns of elastic lines intersect with multi-dimensional layers of sound by James Whipple a.k.a.M.E.S.H., creating an experience that is unique to each individual. As sound, sculpture, and movement resonate throughout the space, the boundaries of physical form and perception blur, offering a new understanding of the interconnections between instinct and awareness. Simultaneously, visual artist Shinae Kim contributes # FlatForest, a conceptual exploration that merges the complexity of natural forests with the organic patterns of digital spaces. In doing so, she creates a compelling dialogue between the physical and the digital, inviting reflection on the intersection of perception.
The project intentionally steers clear of artificially enhancing human nature. Instead, it focuses on the raw, self-organizing beauty inherent in nature's processes, offering a pure, untamed experience. Through artistic transformation, flat weaving techniques, and the layering of sound and images, "code of engagement in flat forests" underscores the deep connection between natural patterns and the human experience, encouraging audiences to engage with fundamental natural rhythms.

About the artists:
Hea Min Jung is a Korean, Berlin-based choreographer and dancer. In her work, Jung explores physical imperfections and human limitations, transforming her own autobiographical experiences into sources of creative possibility and reinvention. Her art and life are deeply intertwined in her search for a “grip on reality.” To ground herself and explore the possibilities of who she can become, she follows the natural flow of her body, allowing it to
guide her. Her choreography in 2024, ‘code of engagement’, was shown at Uferstudio (DE) and MOTHER Offline (KR). In 2023, ‘Because of You’ was featured at Tanz Im August (DE), and ‘Frozen Shoulder’ was presented at the SoloDuo Tanzfestival Cologne at Barnes Crossing Köln (DE), TANZAHOi International Festival (DE), Futuro Festival Roma at Brancaccio Theatre (IT), and the Korea World Dance Stars Festival at Seoul Arts Center (KR).
Shinae Kim understands the nature of the form as information itself, not as a fixed shape. So it doesn’t exist independently or absolutely, but more relatively. She has been trying to reveal the relationship between information in the space by using various materials. Her major works have been shown in configuration-event (hall1, Seoul, 2024), Romantic storage (SeMA Storage, Seoul, 2022). She has participated in Nanji residency(Seoul museum of art) in 2023, MMCA Residency Goyang(National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul)in 2022.
