Six Realms is an immersive multimedia concert inspired by the Buddhist concept of the six realms of existence. Blending contemporary classical music, electronic sound, Chinese poetry, spoken text, and projected imagery, the work explores how desire, suffering, attachment, and awakening shape human experience. The performance unfolds as a continuous journey through shifting sonic and visual environments, inviting the audience to move beyond passive observation and enter a meditative space where ancient Buddhist philosophy encounters contemporary life.
