Parallel World

Imagine a space where reality and illusion juxtapose in harmony, what does it look like? I have always been fascinated over buildings that use glass extensively as the key element of their exterior facade. To me, glass is a material with magical power, it is the mirror of light, a symbol of tranquility and a representation of modernistic simplicity. But most importantly, this hard, brittle substance is the gateway that allows me to peek into a whole new dimension where illusion and reality are brought together into a new form of visual unity. This series is my attempt to interpret the above spatial dimension as I explore alternative methods of portraying building architecture and their surrounding environment, through the usage of glass facade as the main medium of composition. The outcome is to offer a new perspective to appreciate the art of architecture. shiyastudio.zenfolio.com
