About the Project

HashimaXR was a collaborative extended reality (XR) project developed between 2021 and 2024 that aimed to reconstruct Hashima Island’s coal-mining community as it existed in the early 1970s. The project sought to foreground everyday life while creating space for histories that official heritage narratives have marginalized. Although the project achieved sophisticated spatial reconstruction and narrative design, it did not reach public release.
