Dreamscape: Journey into the Inner World is a narrative environment project that examines the logic and symbolism of dreams through immersive virtual reality. It explores how fragmented memory, and subconscious imagery can be spatially choreographed to evoke introspection. A symbolic cat figure guides users through layered environments representing psychological transitions. The experience employs black-and-white aesthetics, non-linear storytelling, and interactive design to simulate the atmosphere of dreaming. Grounded in Jungian theory and immersive media practices, the project investigates how virtual space can be used as a medium for self-exploration and inner reflection.
