Abstract

The project explores light as a material element and as a spacial generator, and how the intercession of other disparate, different material elements can work to create disparate, different material conditions that manifest specific physical phenomena that hold direct implications for the metaphysical (here, spiritual) experience of the inhabitant.

This project doesn't create an arena for a specific experience, but rather strives to generate a spectrum on which to relate an individual chosen action to the physical self (here, now, made spiritual). A self-reflection inspired by a visceral interaction with an ordered space, resulting in self-awareness in metaphysical (phenomenological) context. A building made of concrete, steel, wood, and light. A place for meditation, for prayer, and for worship.
