This series captures the Bangkok Glass Pavilion, a contemporary meditation space with traditional temple motifs and wooden interior. At mid-day, light funnels through glass openings of a pyramidal roof, creating temporary illuminated steps on the floor which converge with all leading lines of the symmetrical space to a centre, guiding and touching curious worshippers with geometric paths of enlightenment in a calming and mindful environment.
