描述
Named after the ancient word Miramonte, meaning "look to the mountain" in Italian, this town sits high atop misty peaks, watching over the valleys below. They say that once a year, screams echo from its stone windows—not screams of terror, but cries of celebration. Laughter and wails mingle in a haunting melody that drifts down the mountainside. Why the people celebrate this way, no one knows, but nobody dares to climb the peaks and find out.

# [Chae Tongyull]
In "Parades of Forgotten Futures," Chae Tongyull draws on his past explorations of urban cityscapes to merge mythical architecture with traces of modern metropolises. Inspired by the histories of Byzantium, Northern Africa, and beyond, these new works are created with original artwork and brought to life by Orangehare’s in-house production team, allowing these fantastical festivals to come alive. Each piece in Parades of Forgotten Futures is named after a celebration that exists only in the mind of the artist, inviting viewers to lose themselves in the grandeur of places that never were.
Chae Tongyull has participated in various international exhibitions and gallery shows, including within the Bronfman Center in Montreal, Saatchi & Saatchi in NYC, "And the Beat Goes On" in Shanghai and Chengdu," and more. Additionally, his works are part of permanent collections of the Korean National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Samsung Lium Art Museum, Daelim Art Museum, and Daejeon Expo.
