조화 (Harmony) is a Master’s thesis project that explores the transformation of complex statistical data into narrative-driven media art. The piece utilizes procedural systems to bridge the gap between cold data and emotive storytelling.
The storyline follows the socioeconomic evolution of South Korea, mapping the Consumer Price Index (CPI) against the country’s rapidly aging population. By visualizing these shifting demographics and economic pressures, the work explores the delicate balance (or “Johwa”) required to sustain harmony within a changing society.
