Summary

Final work

I am a spatial scene designer with strong narrative thinking and spatial perception. With an interdisciplinary background and project experience, I specialise in integrating art, technology, and emotional expression into design.

Passionate about narrative spaces, atmosphere creation, visual communication, and speculative design, I create immersive experiences that connect people with their environment and with themselves.

It is 3129, and an alien civilisation arrives from planet Kepler 22b and lands on the dead planet, Earth. They encounter two key Anthropocene relics that define humanity's flawed spatial logic: the Kiruna mine, shaped by endless excavation, and the remains of the Kowloon Walled City, defined by dense layering and uncontrolled growth.

This cautionary tale unfolds through future archaeology - we see their archive of future fossils and other discoveries and evidence. From the human relics recovered at these sites, the Kepler exploration team constructs a Memorial Pavilion, assembling fossils, domestic fragments and other structural remainsĀ  into a structure that symbolically reimagines the lived experience of the Anthropocene.

As a tribute to the vanished human civilization, the pavilion is a desperate reminder of how small actions and poor decisions can alter future ecological paths towards ultimate destruction. It seeks to encourage visitors to reconsider their relationship with nature, with themselves and with the planet, before it is too late. This interstellar memorial warns that true endurance begins with critical examination of the logic of our actions.
