VIRTUAL NATURE STUDY is an eco-aesthetic experiment that challenges anthropocentric views, focusing on speculative models of non-human-dominated natural evolution. It emphasizes an equal, symbiotic relationship and mutual interdependence among biological forms, technology, and the environment. By utilizing digital transformation, the project creates intersections between human and natural realms. The setting of the work takes place in the seasons of spring and summer, unfolding in a poetic way that dissolves our presence into nature itself. It invites us to feel the warmth of sunlight, to hear the whisper of the breeze, to sense the subtle changes of nature in a single breath, and to experience a 'Authentic unreality.'
