Tíng

Spatial Interactive Immersive Experience

Water is not only a medium for reviving all things but also a language for communication between humans and nature.

The Chinese pronunciation of "pavilion(亭)" is the same as the pronunciation of "stop(停)".

Beyond the phonetic similarity, "亭子" used to be a town where the Song army had the people of Shandong halt and settle by a picturesque setting of green mountains and water. Thus, in ancient China, the term "亭子" carried the implication of "pausing."

Utilizing "亭子" as a medium prompts people in today's bustling era to pause and contemplate nature's language. The project aims to emulate the "moments of communication" between humans and nature, guiding the audience to ponder the often overlooked languages of nature through the fluctuations of water. How will these languages resonate with people's emotions?
