XR Installation, Cologne, Germany, 2024
Animation: Jin-A Lee, Hojin LEE Sound: Hojin LEE Watch documentation
This intimate and emotionally charged work links dissociative identity with early childhood trauma. Before entering the XR environment—an immersive rendering of a dissociative inner world—visitors read excerpts from a fictionalized survivor’s diary. The installation is surrounded by four massive mirrors that extend the space and distort visual perception, heightening the confusion between what is real and what is simulated. The experience culminates in a space for reflection—on attachment, memory, survival, and the multiplicity of the self.
