Kinetic artist Choe U-ram's motorized ark becomes miniature human society

A little ark - made of an intriguing mix of computer-controlled motors and discarded cardboard boxes which altogether reach over 12 meters in length - has found a home in the basement of the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea (MMCA) in central Seoul. As its 35 pairs of black-and-white mechanical oars gradually begin to rise and flap, soon dancing majestically to the ambient melody as if sailing on the open sea, it won't be long before viewers notice that something is not quite right.
