Temple of Saint Tree

/
Saint Tree
In the heart of the mystical Cloud Forest, nestled within the village of Abar, stood an enchanting sanctuary. This magical haven was cloaked by an ornate dome, and within its hallowed walls, sacred trees flourished, their branches reaching up in a timeless symphony with the heavens. The villagers held this place in reverence, deeming it a sanctified heritage, where daily devotions and sacred offerings were made to the revered trees.
The Cloud Forest was more than just a natural wonder for the villagers; it was a realm of boundless devotion and humility, where nature and spirituality entwined in a tapestry of magic and wonder. Here, amidst the whispering leaves and the dappled sunlight, the people of Abar found solace and connection with a world beyond the physical, where the sacred trees stood as living links to the divine.

The “Narrators of Space” project represents a personal exploration into the creation of narrative spaces. It commenced after I completed my Master’s thesis on narrative strategies within the context of space. In this research, narratives were chosen as the starting point for shaping spaces, with each narrative dictating the selection of a corresponding location. Subsequently, a process of pattern recognition was initiated to translate these narratives into spatial design. During this pattern recognition phase, motifs related to the narrative space emerged, eventually transforming into architectural elements.
From this point forward, the design and integration of these spatial patterns and physical elements began, aimed at creating an architectural whole. The project advanced into the scenario development and animation sequencing stage, with designs synchronizing with a preconceived musical score that would set the tone for the video. Finally, camera movements, rendering of animation shots, and mixing and mastering were executed to produce these videos.
In these projects, I pursue two primary objectives. The first is to exercise the formulation of a design framework based on narrative strategies, with the hope of making it comprehensible to others. The second goal is to convey the emotional aspects of the stories presented within the medium. It is through the magic of cinema that we aim to transfer these emotions to the audience, creating a powerful connection.
