In Inner Core, Jaehun Park presents a sculpture that resembles a segment of a larger, autonomous system – as if we are observing a component from an unfamiliar planet or machine.
The design is sharp and modular: geometric planes, openings, and grids interlock into a precise, almost industrial structure. Yet, the object remains sensorial. The soft, almost skin-like colours and the honeycomb structure lend the work a physical quality. On the upper surface, a coded movement seems to be hidden – a quiet dynamic, as though something circulates deep within.
Park plays with scale: Inner Core could just as easily represent the Earth's core, a circuit board, or an air system. The work reveals itself visually as a cross-section – an insight into a system that is typically concealed.
In this way, Inner Core offers a poetic exploration of technology, abstraction, and order. It is not a statement, but a proposal: an invitation to contemplate what lies within, in a world that often only perceives the surface.
