Facades
Facades is an Immersive VR Dance Theatre experience utilising Volumetric Capture. Inspired by iconic moments from film, Facades uses the architectural features of windows, mirrors and doors as metaphors for duality, reflection and portals. This surreal 'VR noir' presents hauntingly beautiful choreography from unique perspectives, inviting the viewer to look behind the scenes, move beyond the veneer and take a closer look. Challenging the norms and rules of VR this surreal artwork allows the rough edges of volumetric capture to act as a metaphor for how we present ourselves through digital media - asking what is found, what is lost? The performer has one perfect angle but behind this is a void. Often a melancholic experience, it shows how through digitisation we can dissolve into data or make new relationships.
