Somerset House presents the European premiere of Björk Digital, an immersive virtual reality exhibition from Icelandic icon Björk.
Somerset House presents the European premiere of Björk Digital, an exhibition of digital and video works, resulting from Björk’s collaborations with some of the finest visual artists and programmers in the world. Björk constantly and consistently challenges the status quo, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in music, art and technology.
The exhibition at Somerset House invites visitors to engage with her work through the latest in virtual reality (VR) technology. Björk believes that by offering a private theatrical experience, VR provides a unique way to connect with her audiences. The exhibition will include Black Lake, Björk’s ground-breaking immersive film commissioned by the New York’s Museum of Modern Art where the audience is treated to panoramic visuals and enveloped by a bespoke, cutting edge surround-sound system. As part of Björk Digital, Björk will hold a special, one-off concert performance at the Royal Albert Hall on Wednesday 21 September, her only UK show this year.
