Gangwon 2024, Youth Olympic Games gold, silver and bronze medals, and medal presentation tray.
With its vertical lines to convey the idea of growth, and random elements created through cutouts and texture changes to represent the diverse group of Games participants on one side, and South Korea’s mountainous landscape on the other, the medal designed by Akira Uwai is a geometric interpretation of the motto: “Grow Together, Shine Forever”. The artist conceived it as a small sculpture that could be held in one’s hand – “Something that could be picked up, viewed from different angles, and felt for its texture.”
