To Spawn a door… VR exhibit

The Casebearer 2.0 installed with 3D sculptures in To Spawn a Door in the Land of Broken Mirrors @ New Art City

I was in my first exclusively Virtual Reality show in April, on New Art City. It was fun to work in this platform and platform. Curated by Nacoca Ko, this pavilion was originally part of the New Art City festival and featured some of my favorite digital artists.

It can be accessed now as as an archived virtual project and as a catalog here:

Eighteen artists from around the world come together to create a world of Doors, Gates, Portals, Wormholes.. a frame for the liminal threshold we call Now. Opening toward the future, closing behind the past, this is the space between the rational and the imaginary, consciousness and dreaming, political and ethereal, between the numerical and the numinal. Who are the guardians rising, the gatekeepers? The troll, the sphinx, the alchemist, the nonhuman? What do we leave behind, and what do we bring with us? What do we cancel, what do we crowdfund? The doorway is an arch of shelter as the earth shakes in apocalypse. Laws of physics collapse as the virtual guides us back to our subconscious desires.
