Crystal Bloom
ARTECHOUSE Studio
Where koi glide and dragonflowers rise, the summer air turns to crystal…
Suspended in a seamless circular loop, Crystal Bloom invites viewers to drift upward into an endless wreath of iridescent glass flora and fantastical koi. At its heart, a crystalline dragon flower weaves a slow, mesmerizing journey, guiding the eye through blooming forms that shimmer with artificial elegance. Part botanical, part dreamscape, the piece offers a moment of visual air conditioning—cool, radiant, and mindlessly meditative. In this garden of light and illusion, nature and artifice entwine in a summertime trance of color and calm.
PIXELBLOOM: Timeless Butterflies
ARTECHOUSE Studio

From there, the dream travels through various panoramas of exotic spring blooms as part of a flock of butterflies, ending up in a hurricane of petals—a scene that touches the viscera of the audience, reminding them of the fleeting exuberance of nature’s exquisite gifts.

Milkweed Accord
ARTECHOUSE Studio
A milkweed bloom becomes an improbable landing site for dozens of Monarch butterflies. Still, surreal, and almost too perfect to touch. But a visitor approaches, the stillness shatters: the butterflies lift off in unison, fluttering to a neighboring screen in a quiet, playful escape.
Milkweed Accord turns interaction into a metaphor for ecological delicacy, an ever-shifting choreography between presence and retreat. Through motion-sensing technology, it invites us to consider the fragile relationships that sustain life, and how even the smallest gesture can echo through the living world.
Blooming Strings
ARTECHOUSE Studio
Blooming Strings transforms the two displays into dynamic, interactive musical instruments. Originally conceived for LG Display’s unique transparent OLEDs, this version reimagines the experience on two displays on the wall. Visitors become the players, and each step makes flowers bloom and produces sound. As you move across the vine-covered visuals, your movement strums these blossoms, coaxing them to “sing” in a symphony of notes.
The installation plays with magnetism and motion, drawing inspiration from Monarch butterflies’ migratory patterns. Here, the visitor’s movement guides the energy flow, much like how the butterflies follow unseen magnetic fields. What once was a fleeting natural phenomenon is now a digital symphony powered by interaction and the beauty of nature.
Pachinko and Upcycle
ARTECHOUSE Studio
Upcycle: Inspired by the concept of creative reuse, Upcycle is a dynamic, futuristic game that challenges players to dive through piles of discarded materials in search of valuable, reusable items. Visitors control a bike-like vehicle, navigating through “trash” to find and repurpose objects for a higher environmental and artistic purpose. The game celebrates upcycling and the potential for transforming waste into something greater, encouraging players to think about sustainability while having fun.
Pachinko: A digital version of the classic Japanese arcade game, Pachinko is given a fresh, futuristic twist with a Gundam anime aesthetic. Players trigger the pinball-style action using two buttons on either side of the display, watching as the ball bounces through a maze of pins, landing in various pockets.
This version of Pachinko brings the retro arcade experience into the future, inviting players to engage with a blend of nostalgia and cutting-edge digital design.
