Yūgen - Japanese Tea Room - Architectural Visualisations

Y Å« g e n

g r e g h e a p

/yoo-gehn/ (Noun Noun) The sense of beauty that comes from a subtle awareness of the surrounding atmosphere.

During my MA course, I learned a lot about Japanese design aesthetics and philosophies.

The semiotic messaging and deep reverence for nature found within Wabi Sabi teachings inspired me to create a series of images which reflected those principles.

Much of my work is informed by a single emotion. My aim is to translate that emotion into imagery which either enhances it, or allows me to escape from it.

These visuals represent the cumulative need for peace and tranquility which I think is being experienced by many of us during this time.
