Seoul, November 2026 — Media artist and filmmaker Alaric Hamacher participates as a selected artist in the 18th Hechyeomoyeo (HCMY) international art exhibition at KOTE in Seoul’s historic Insa-dong district.
Bringing together more than 500 artists from Korea and around the world, the exhibition celebrates artistic diversity and international exchange through painting, sculpture, photography, digital art, and experimental media.
Blue Girl – Digital Holography in Motion
For this exhibition, Hamacher presents an animated version of his holographic artwork Blue Girl, displayed on an animated holographic display.
The artwork explores human presence, movement, and spatial perception through digital holography. Extending the original holographic composition into a moving image, the installation creates a new visual experience that combines three-dimensional imagery with time-based artistic expression.
Blue Girl is part of Hamacher’s ongoing exploration of digital holography and immersive media art. The work has previously been presented in international exhibitions and is also permanently exhibited at the Kwangwoon University Hologram Center in Seoul.
