large black sphere hovers over memorial in xidian wang's museum of silence and memory
Briefly

Xidian Wang's design of the Museum of Silence and Memory uses a suspended black sphere to symbolize the emotional weight of women's unspoken stories, promoting healing and remembrance.
Inside the museum, a dimly lit space devoid of objects allows faint, ethereal reflections of faces to engage visitors emotionally, highlighting the dignity of the women commemorated.
The architecture fosters a sacred environment for quiet contemplation, focusing on the human experience and honoring the often-overlooked lives of women affected by systemic oppression.
The design's subtle imbalance and the underground features represent the lasting absence of these women, inviting visitors to reflect on the impact of their histories.
