Title: The Vertical Bridge
Artist: NARI (나리)
Bio: A bridge to the Metaverse doesn't discard gravity; it suspends it. This piece visualizes uploading cultural memory into the virtual realm. A figure grounded in traditional ink uses human will to pull massive physical objects —earthenware, porcelain, and mother-of-pearl vessels— upward to a digital light. We don't just enter the virtual future; we tether our heavy physical heritage to it.
