Blockware reinterprets traditional Korean ceramics as modular digital blocks, exploring how digital media transforms cultural objects through abstraction and motion.

This project visualizes the intersection of tradition and technology by reconstructing a Korean ceramic vessel through digital blocks. The familiar form of pottery is transformed into pixel-like tiles, blurring the line between realism and abstraction, heritage and reinterpretation.
Generative AI was used to create the base ceramic imagery. A custom script in Processing then transformed the images into modular pixelated tiles that scatter, disperse, and reassemble through motion.
The final work deconstructs and reimagines cultural heritage through a digital material language, combining ceramic form, modular systems, and visual distortion.
