Description
A table set with mosaic sculptures depicting various foods and a series of non-mosaic components, two chairs, and a mysterious character. This is one of the first artworks to utilize Google Cardboard to create an immersive and multisensory experience through the combination of mosaic and virtual reality.
Food transforms into a representative aspect of the chosen personality, an element capable of narrating the life of a character in an unprecedented way and analyzing their influence on their artistic production.
Visitors, by sitting at the table and wearing the VR headset, have the opportunity to immerse themselves in a real dinner with the character to whom the work is dedicated, through a vision that transcends tangible reality.
