ERIN Yuwei YANG

In Chinese philosophy, it is believed that when people focuses their spirit on nature, they can feel the infinite changes of the universe and thus can forget about time and the worries of the moment. It is also widely used in the formation of Chinese gardens.

 

According to Freudian psychoanalysis, in dreams one temporarily forgets the rational dichotomy of thinking and the suppressed subconscious is released and healed, which is also the basis of surrealism.The architects create utopian spaces - with light as the core, combined with colour and water to give a strong emotional experience, as if you were in a surreal world and thus forget the worries of real life.

 

This collection combines philosophical and spatial language, looking at how healing spaces can be created in both Chinese and Western cultural contexts, finding commonalities and combining them in corresponding experiments.
