Seoul Mini Mountains_1
The “Seoul Mini Mountains” exhibition is rooted in a research project by Borio-Lab, led by Géraldine Borio, an assistant professor at the University of Hong Kong’s Department of Architecture. With over 17 years of architectural and urban research experience across Asian cities such as Bangkok, Hong Kong, and Seoul, Professor Borio’s work forms the foundation of this exhibition. Jointly presented with the Seoul Museum of History, the exhibition revisits Seoul’s urban landscape by investigating the role and impact of voids (empty spaces) in the city center on its urban narrative and identity. The exhibition highlights Seoul's distinctive topography through photographs and drawings created by Professor Borio and her students. This research delves into how historical developments have shaped the voids in Seoul and how their ‘boundaries’ have changed. It analyzes these spaces through the observation of the ‘activities’ occurring within these undeveloped areas. You are invited to take part in this meaningful opportunity to experience a foreign scholar’s fresh perspective on Seoul and to reflect on the value of seeing spaces and objects in a new light. We look forward to your visit.
