PXN Pavilion

Pavilion

Gia Lâm Train Factory

1000sqm

2023

PXN Pavilion is organized as an exhibition and interpretation space, preserving and presenting records of artifacts remaining in the workshop

Simultaneously, the Pavilion will serve as a backdrop for artistic performances, contributing to the expansion and completion of the heritage experience at the Gia Lam Railway Factory

Inspired by the work "Relativity" by visual artist M. C. Escher, the spatial structure is created through a floor system supported by scaffolding, allowing users to access it from multiple directions and at varying heights, thus evoking a sense of continuous space without a clear beginning or end.
The Pavilion becomes a structure for remembrance, where the past is activated through contemporary experience, while reflecting the relationship between the finitude of human life and the enduring, almost sacred, nature of the physical entities remaining in the factory.
