Ugly Society is a fictional media art exhibition conceived as student project at ArtCenter College of Design.
It explores the darker sides of contemporary society through immersive installations. Featuring six internationally renowned artists—Harun Farocki, Wong Ping, Hito Steyerl, Cao Fei, Sungsil Ryu, and Julian Rosefeldt—the exhibition presents critical perspectives on surveillance, capitalism, digital alienation, and cultural fragmentation.
I developed the visual identity of the exhibition, including the exhibition poster and printed catalog. The design reflects the tension between digital aesthetics and raw social commentary, aiming to create a cohesive yet unsettling atmosphere that mirrors the themes of the artworks. Each design element—from typography to layout—was crafted to invite viewers into a provocative, immersive experience.
