Fluidic Topography explores the relationship between man and nature through the medium of Jeju Island's natural features containing the artist's reflections on the way contemporary society understands and embraces nature. Through Jeju Island's lava caves, Gotjawal Forest and Geoncheon Stream, the artist visualises the traces of human activity on nature and explores the possibility of symbiosis with nature, focusing on the traces and changes over time on the island's surface.
