Tundra Collective has infilled the D museum in seoul with an immersive, interactive installation made up of thousands of luminous hexagonal cells. ‘my whale (inner revision)’ comprises a series of projectors that beam colored light onto a curved wall surrounding visitors, forming an audio-visual effect that brings the sounds of a whale to life. the patterns and accompanying sounds give viewers an experience akin to swimming alongside whales, encountering their vibrations and singing.

Created for the exhibition ‘9 lights in 9 rooms’ at D museum, the installation demonstrates the artistic potential of light as a medium, and offers unconventional stimuli to visitors’ senses. each piece of the ever-evolving projection created by tundra is cloned from previous ones, with a series of random changes throughout. this means that each cell behaves differently in the space, pulsating to the rhythm of the whale songs.
