Many have explored immersive augmented reality (AR) in various ways. Through “spatial computing,” this exhibition questions how real-time technology connected in the real world can connect to the seas. Rather than viewing the sea as an objectively existing environment or ecology, the exhibition seeks to construct a concrete shape of the sea by introducing history. In other words, the exhibition seeks to “connect” technology, nature, and humans into a new, cyclic ecosystem. To achieve this, Apple Vision Pro was integrated as a sensory technology that reactivates space with digital symbols, bridging the gap between reality and virtuality, and allowing the audience to experience that these two worlds can interact.

At its core, the goal of this exhibition is to conceptualize the seas of Asia as a “boundless treasury” and an “entrance” for transforming historical pain into a space of solidarity, connection, and joy. Rather than framing the seas of Asia merely as tourist destinations, the possibilities of concrete solidarity are identified and positioned through historical sources to actively organize the context of connection. In other words, audiences are invited to imagine the richness of Asia through immersive AR and the possibilities of solidarity and peace through historical archives. In this way, Apple Vision Pro and the archive function serve not just as technological tools but also as instruments that shape the future.
