Gate of Zero, A Magnificent Poetry of Seckin Pirim in The Maldives
World-renowned Turkish artist and sculptor Seçkin Pirim has designed the ‘Gate of Zero’ pavilion as a permanent sculpture for the Joali Being, a wellness center located on Bodufushi Island in the Maldives. The designer used complex algorithms using parametric design and computational tools to generate the pavilion’s geometry. The statue-like geometry serves as a gateway and welcomes visitors to the island. Inspired by the skirt form of whirling dervishes, the pavilion allows visitors to walk through it and enjoy the inner spaces.
