上升 | Ascension VR

Within an abstract, virtual architecture, where is the viewer, and where are they heading? Ascension is an experimental spatial experience guided by bodily labor, in which the audience are invited to enter the virtual brutalist architecture through movement and search for meaning in it. Viewers follow an initial light and climb through the staircase. As they continue to walk and ascend, they encounter architectural spaces illuminated through narrow gaps, open areas, and eventually concealed, dim, and uncanny spaces, before finally reaching the top. During the act of walking, what does the light being followed signify? Is it a guide, a temptation, or a disturbance?
