Hyundai Card brings the digital artwork Berl-Berl by Danish media artist Jakob Kudsk Steensen to Seoul and New York. The artwork is displayed at the Hyundai Card MoMA Digital Wall in Seoul, allowing audiences in both cities to experience the same piece simultaneously. The exhibition runs through March 2027 at Hyundai Card's headquarters in Yeouido, Seoul.
Berl-Berl digitally reconstructs a wetland in Berlin that vanished due to urban development, transforming its traces into an immersive virtual environment through 3D animation, video, and sound. The artwork combines sounds from the wetland, transformed into rhythms and songs, with three-dimensional digital models of physical specimens gathered at the site.
The result invites viewers to reconsider the relationship between humans and the natural world. Steensen's project, developed with the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin, musicians Arca and Matt McCorkle, and field research in Berlin’s wetlands, uses digital media to examine human perception and interaction with the environment. The Hyundai Card MoMA Digital Wall, established in March 2025, aims to connect audiences in Seoul and New York through a shared digital art experience.
