- Description
- Uranus is an expression of Nam June Paik's cosmic imagination, encapsulated within his trilogy of satellite operas and planetary series. Paik amplified global communication and imagination by connecting New York and Paris through a satellite live broadcast. He expanded his vision of the universe through the planetary series, which includes works such as Sun and Moon, Venus, Mars, and Neptune. Uranus, the seventh planet in the solar system, appears turquoise due to methane in its atmosphere and features hazy ice rings. In Uranus, Paik combines colorful neon lights with 24 monitors displaying various images. The radiant visuals flickering across the 24 screens create a poetic portrait of the universe, bridging the fleeting and the eternal.
