We represented Soswaewon by arbitrarily combining our research on the garden without our physical experience of the place. These graphics do not reproduce the actual Soswaewon. Through creatively analyzing and putting the research data together, we created Soswaewon that is in our imagination. The scholars of that time wrote “Uiwonki” (意園記) which means imaginary garden writings to envision their ideals through gardening. We, too, envisioned our imaginary garden and strolled around through visualizing the ideal form of Soswaewon. The audience gets to imagine and share Soswaewon with us.
