HTC Vive and The Royal Academy of Arts bring you the world's fist 3D printed virtual reality art
This experiential display will showcase the potential of VR in the visual arts. You will not only be able to see the artworks on display but you'll also be able to experience the making of each artwork in virtual reality using HTC Vive. Walk through, over, under and around the artwork as it is created around you, fully immersing you in the process.
The 3D printed sculptures by Royal Academy Schools alumni Adham Faramawy, Elliot Dodd and current final year student Jessy Jetpacks, have been created using HTC Vive. Offering an unrivalled experience due to its real-life graphics, Vive lets you move around and interact in hundreds of virtual worlds with its innovative hand controllers and room-scale tracking. Each artist involved in the project has a history of work involving virtual reality, apps and multi-media, however this will be the first time artwork created in virtual reality has been brought into the physical world.
The artworks themselves have been created using a series of artistic software programs including:
• Tilt Brush by Google - an app which lets you paint in three-dimensional space with virtual reality
• Kodon by Tenk Labs - a virtual reality sculpting tool
After completing the exhibition, you can then try your own hand at creating masterpieces in VR using these same virtual reality programs that were used in the exhibition.
Please note a limited number of tickets are available for visitors to take part in Virtually Real and must be pre-booked in advance.
Tickets are £45.00. Ticket price includes an immersive evening of virtual reality art and one complimentary drink.
