Samsara is an immersive light installation that delves into Phenology. It seeks to symbolically portray a harmonious landscape where the laws of nature and the rhythmic ingenuity of human intelligence blend. At its core, Samsara serves as a metaphor for the repetitive patterns embedded in the human life cycle throughout history.

This piece offers the public a captivating spatial experience by seamlessly combining components, including the ever-changing angles of solar ecliptic, the ethereal beauty of fiber optic textiles, and state-of-the-art projection technologies.
