Tophane_i Amire Single-Dome Hall
This work, established in the single-domed hall of the Tophane-i Amire, examines the relationship of light with the historical dome in new layers through an inverted metal dome, sound, digital images and programming. The light falling from the “eye” of the dome triggers projections and sound, and the inverse dome on the floor forms a sphere together with the dome of the space. This constructed spherical structure contains animations of abstract geometric forms common in architectural work.
A Spatial Experience Based on the Intersection of Architecture and Media Arts
A selection of HAS Architects’ projects is presented in a performance that blends digital technology with spatial design, forming a synthesis between the past and the present within the magical atmosphere of the historical Single-Dome Hall of the Imperial Arsenal. Taking the Single-Dome Hall as the focal point, the exhibition uses contemporary interpretations to alternate between old and new, whole and fragment, real and virtual, balanced and unbalanced states. Notions of time and space become blurred and the exhibition surrounds the visitors, offering them an unusual spatial experience.
