Apeiron

Apeiron is an immersive projection-based installation that transforms a finite white room into a meditative, alternate reality.

Named after the ancient Greek word for "infinity," Apeiron draws on cosmological theories and digital aesthetics to question the nature of reality and our perception of space.

The work was deeply inspired by my visit to the teamLab Borderless Digital Art Museum in Tokyo in 2020. Experiencing a large-scale immersive exhibition for the first time left a lasting impression on me, and introduced me to projection mapping as a medium, something I later taught myself to use in order to bring Apeiron to life.

Rooted in the holographic principle, the idea that the universe might be a projection from a two-dimensional surface, Apeiron invites viewers to question the reality they inhabit and imagine what lies beyond. The visual language blends abstract forms with binary-coded objects, creating a meditative and otherworldly atmosphere.

Originally planned for the university gallery, Apeiron was reimagined during the COVID-19 lockdown. As an international student unable to return home, I remained on campus and converted a study room in my residential building into the final installation space. In this improvised setting, the project became not only a conceptual escape, but a personal one, built from limited resources, yet rich in imagination.
