Heavenly (2024)

“Between dawn and night there is an abyss, don't expect another Heaven, nor another Hell.” — The instant by Jorge Luis Borges 

Heavenly has created a futuristic world where digital immortality has become a popular business. People, pressured by society, see the limitless capabilities offered by digital immortality as salvation and eagerly rush to sign contracts with digital immortality companies to upload their consciousness, unaware of the terrifying truth awaiting them.

As an explorer, the player accidentally enters the forbidden zone of the digital Immortality world. Faced with an unfamiliar environment, twisted monsters and strange rituals, the player needs to explore the hidden secrets of digital immortality while finding a way out.

Heavenly combines 3D narrative film and interactive experience, built upon the concept of out-of-body cyborgs in a futuristic setting, visualizes traditional issues within Chinese society and their impact on an individual's life, creating an endless world.

Forbidden Cage (2023)

Forbidden Cage is an interactive installation that discusses the conflict between freedom and societal rules. It employs distance sensors and Arduino. The spider and cage symbolise rules, and the audience represents free will. When the audience approaches the spider, the spider's limbs wriggle wildly as if to catch the audience. This project expresses the confrontation between rules and freedom and aims to remind people to remain true to themselves despite the repression of social rules.
