Deep Termite Habitat - Re-Fictionalizing Symbiosis

Biology sci-fi exhibition display

This is a display designed for an art exhibition that explores the symbiotic relationship between humans and termites based on a futuristic sci-fi, where a fictional social structure for termites is formed with nine social strata, with whom humans coexist in complex relationships of enmity and friendship. The design reinterprets and deciphers the fiction into physicality so viewers can have an immersive and interactive understanding of the seemingly elusive concept. Symbiosis, beyond an idea, is an implementation embodied by the display design that’s fit for mobility and universality in the making and re-assembly for repeated use.
