Large IDP Tent in Somaliland

3D Model

During my journey to Somaliland, I captured a 3D photogrammetry scan of a tent, which is prominently featured in my latest interactive VR film “On The Brink”. This particular tent belongs to the main character in the story, “Ayan”, who represents countless families compelled to leave their homes because of drought and conflict in the region.

Many families find themselves residing in makeshift tents similar to this one. Such makeshift tents, assembled with whatever materials are at hand – often ragged clothing, plastic sheets, and locally sourced items – serve as shelters for thousands of displaced families. These living conditions become particularly challenging during the rainy season. To gain a more intimate understanding of Ayan’s living conditions and to truly comprehend what life is like in these circumstances, you can explore this tent in VR or AR on Sketchfab.
