The Rite of Ten Winds

About the Game

The Rite of Ten Winds is an interactive VR artwork by artist Yambe Tam which envisions a future symbiosis between science and spirituality, nature and technology in the British countryside. These new relationships unfold through a series of neo-Pagan purification rituals inspired by emerging greenhouse gas removal methods in the UK. These rituals are positioned as part of a crucial cultural shift, which imagines how sacred places and practices can reorient human motivations toward long term ecological stewardship. They propose a future where biosphere and technosphere converge to reawaken a lost kinship with the earth and combat the climate crisis.
