Modeled off of Asian prayer spaces, The Ancestral Crypt is where viewers “can go with our q***r ancestors on the ancestral plane,” according to artist, Lauren YS.
Loose references to Tu’Er Shen (protector of the q***r) and Xiwangmu (queen of the femme) and Guanyin (genderfluid deity of compassion) govern the ideology of the space. The room has a sense of being underground, existing somewhere that feels both futuristic and ancient, with design centered on a neo-Asian feel mixed in with alien, futuristic, western and psychedelic influences.
