ROLE: CG Artist

EMBODIED ARCHITECTURE is an immersive exhibition project by Harvard CAMLab that combines architectural scanning technology. The work is based on the Yingxian (or Sakyamuni) Pagoda: an ancient wooden pagoda built in the Liao Dynasty of China.

This sacred building’s concept and structural design are closely related to Buddhist dharma, and because of its age, it has been difficult for modern people to repair and preserve. Therefore, the original purpose of the project was to preserve the pagoda digitally. Its other goal was to disseminate the history, culture, and Buddhist philosophy related to the Yingxian Pagoda to the public through an immersive experience.

I was in charge of three acts in the project: Prologue, Becoming, and Remains.


Act 0 Prelude
Night Rain and Bells





Act II Form
From mortal to saint


Act III Emptiness
Remnants in snow
