PureLand Exhibition

It is a pioneering augmented reality installation whereby the paintings and sculptures of the caves are rendered virtually within the architecture of a room which shares same dimensions to those of Cave 220 itself. It creates a space for the conjunction between real and virtual formations that gives transacted aesthetic expression to Dunhuang’s Buddhist art treasury of mural paintings and sculptures. The exhibition was running in the Gallery at Sunway University, for nearly 2 months (Sep-Oct 2016). PureLand exhibition was a collaboration with Professor Sarah Kanderdine (University of New South Wales) and Professor Jeffrey Shaw (City University of Hong Kong), and Dunhuang Academy, China.
