Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism 2023 has launched in the South Korean capital, running themes around nature and land through the lens of urbanism
'Land' is the key word to zoom into at the Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism 2023, which has just launched at the South Korean capital, taking place from 1 September through to 29 October.
The main difference between this year’s biennale and previous editions is the use of outdoor space. While previous festivals were all held indoors in a more conventional, exhibition format, this year, an outdoor, green space is used as the main venue, inviting visitors to connect with nature. The Sky Project is an installation that provides an experience that resembles climbing a mountain, as visitors must go up stainless-steel stairs to reach the top of the 12m structure. There, from a platform which functions like an observatory, people can feel the breeze and enjoy the scenery. It is also meant for visitors to appreciate land and its provenance and variety, as the soil piled up in small hills within it were brought from four different regions in the country.
At the Seoul Hall of Urbanism and Architecture, which is located next to City Hall, the exhibition 'Seoul 100-year Masterplan' explores ideas for the future – looking into the next 100 years.
