KT 5G Sculpture Symbolizing

KT 5G Sculpture Symbolizing is a monumental public art installation that represents a groundbreaking fusion of technological innovation and artistic expression, created to commemorate the advent of 5G telecommunications technology. This large-scale sculptural work, measuring 32 meters by 6.8 meters, was meticulously crafted using 1.5-ton stainless steel plates that were precisely bent and welded to achieve organic, flowing forms. The installation features dynamic design elements that abstractly represent the three primary characteristics of 5G technology: ultra-high speed, ultra-low latency, and hyper connectivity. Through vivid colors and bold patterns, the sculpture incorporates modern interpretations of contemporary technological themes, including autonomous driving and drone technology, while utilizing directional arrow motifs to symbolize data flow and connectivity. The installation's artistic merit was recognized with a Silver A' Design Award in the Fine Arts and Art Installation Design category, acknowledging its innovative approach to visualizing complex technological concepts through public art. The sculpture serves both aesthetic and functional purposes, with smaller components designed as public seating areas, accompanied by informative displays that explain the technological concepts to viewers. The manufacturing process involved intricate color masking techniques to achieve the precise transitions between its vibrant hues, while the structural simplicity of the design maintains focus on its symbolic representation. Located in a central urban setting, this installation demonstrates how public art can effectively communicate complex technological advances while creating an engaging and educational space for public interaction.
