This project creates a healing environment that helps individuals process break-up grief by simulating a digital Garden Therapy. Through an immersive experience, the story visualises the Five Stages of Grief in terms of flowers, with the guide words as background voice. It would let them understand their emotional changes and encouraging acceptance and a path toward emotional healing.

“People’s mind is a city built by a siege. People in the city want to escape, and people outside the city want to rush in”. This concept from the book ‘Fortress Besieged’ is the starting point for the project, exploring dissatisfaction with one’s own life and yearning for other people’s lives. Based on this topic, it creates a tunnel book with images using circular narrative and emphasis on reincarnation of the story.
