The name, Buddha’s House, derives from a client who’s been collecting Vajrayana Buddharupa for many years. The number of collection was magnificent. How a anctuary-like space for mainly exhibiting the Buddharupa as well as secondly living and meditating is created is the key feature here.
The way of Vajrayana is solemn and respectful. The form itself is impressive. As such, we see every one of Buddharupa as unique artwork for collection. The idea is originated from the exhibiting space in the curation of a micro-museum.
By removing the customary luxury of the mandala, we set the plainness as the longitude and simple structure line as the latitude, taking geometric layering, falling, breaking, and hollowing as the link between man and space. The sculpture gallery presents a hidden containing secret within it. The flow and change of natural lights can achieve an appreciation of fine combination of the Buddhapura and the materials. The strong and light in the grey tone comfort our heart; the purple symbolizes the aura of the Buddha, implying the noble innate quality. The elegant arch of the lintel and skyline is similar to a smiling and kind face. A warm and relaxing atmosphere is thus formed.
Faith is essential to comforting our hearts and nurturing our spirit. It can be tangible description or an intangible conception. Regardless of which, the purity of the container can always subside and filter the impurities.
