ancient aquarium

2019 -


An experience as if peering into a far-off ancient sea, expressed as a metaphor for the spirit, the universe, and other spaces. Ancient fish a coelacanth continues to swim freely as if it has random intentions. The latest video game technology, such as real-time rendering and game AI, is used to express the scene, so that the exact same scene is never repeated twice.
