“The Golden Cage” is an innovative video art piece recorded with a 360º camera, transforming the viewer’s perspective into an immersive, boundary-blurring experience.
The narrative unfolds within an ethereal, golden-hued cage, where three characters find themselves trapped. Their reality is a distorted, infinite loop created by the unique properties of the 360º video, causing the world to warp and wrap around itself. As the characters move, they appear to make progress but are continually brought back to the same point, underscoring the futility of their efforts. The environment around them morphs and shifts, with walls bending and spaces folding, enhancing the sense of a dreamlike, ever-repeating cycle, exploring the themes of confinement, illusion, and the cyclical nature of existence through a surreal, looping universe.
