Sentient Beings is a site-specific augmented reality mural installation that integrates digital media with architectural space. The project features biomorphic forms adhered onto an architectural surface, which are activated through smartphone-based augmented reality interfaces. Upon interaction, viewers trigger three-dimensional animations that transform static visual elements into dynamic, time-based entities.

Sentient Beings considers the possibility that sentience may extend beyond human experience to include animals, plants, and microorganisms. The work thereby foregrounds questions of agency, perception, and consciousness within a more expansive, non-anthropocentric framework.
