The Studio BK and Ateliers BK teams produced the visual content for the AYA immersive experience in the WAFI shopping centre in Dubai. Twelve interactive scenographies to discover a unique universe.
A sanctuary beyond the dark side of the stars
AYA does not exist in our known universe. It’s a sanctuary, hidden beyond the dark side of the stars, built to commune with the natural beauty of a mysterious cosmos. A door has opened, transporting visitors into parallel worlds with which they can interact. Command starry observatories, wander through gardens filled with light, cross infinite rivers… spectators become actors in the imaginary worlds that surround them.
In this ethereal universe of AYA, every luminous projection and every dark corner converge to form the labyrinths of an elusive dimension. Visitors are invited to explore the boundaries of cosmic beauty, like reflections of deep dreams or fragments of forgotten memory. AYA becomes a mirror of our perceptions, an invitation to plunge into the infinite ocean of creative possibilities that lies within each of us.
In this enchanted space, time seems to bend to the whims of the imagination, allowing us to dance with the stars and caress the clouds of light. Audiences realise that the boundary between reality and fantasy is as fluid as the rivers that flow through AYA’s infinity, and that our ability to dream is a force as powerful as that which governs the cosmos.
It is in the suspension of our certainties that we find true magic, in the exploration of unknown territories that we discover the true essence of our humanity. And with every step we take in this universe of light, shadow and colour, we are reminded both of our humility in the face of the grandeur of the universe and of our infinite capacity to imagine, to transcend.
