Fractal explores how personal and emotional experiences are shaped by Korea’s rigid and repetitive social structures, often described as a “fractal society.” Inspired by lived testimonies, she translates these narratives into graphic illustrations and tactile objects.
The work invites reflection on how social hierarchies become internalised, and how their patterns might be seen, touched, and reshaped through visual communication.
What happens when the pattern is held, touched, and transformed?
A series of self-repeating fractal objects were created, each symbolising Korea’s rigid societal framework. The objects reference both structural repetition and personal resistance. The act of holding and interacting with the object becomes a moment of subtle power shift—inviting the viewer to not only engage physically, but to consider their own lived experiences within social hierarchies. On a broader level, the interaction prompts reflection on societal systems and the roles individuals play within them.

This publication reflects on the fractal-like nature of Korean society, where rigid structures, silent hierarchies, and generational expectations replicate across age, gender, education, and class. Drawing from interviews, it compiles selected statements that capture lived emotions—frustration, conformity, resistance, and quiet complexity.
Through these recursive narratives, the publication listens to how individuals speak from within structure, and how meaning is formed in its shadows. It offers a space for feeling, for reflection, and for each voice to be heard in its raw and unaltered form.

This series of graphic drawing posters visualises emotional responses to living within a fractal-like social structure. The visuals reflect the weight of predetermined paths—systems where individuality dissolves into repetition and quiet conformity.
Each piece serves as a reflective surface, inviting viewers to confront their own relationships with structural systems. Through texture, scale, and material, the work prompts reflection on how deeply social patterns shape not only behavior, but also emotion, identity, and the sense of self.
