A nightly journey in Virtual reality
Homescape
Interactive Virtual Reality installation
An eerie journey to the outskirts of an Israeli village. Wearing the headset, players go through guided meditation and dive deep into a dark landscape. The fields surrounding Ma’as, the artist's Israeli hometown, inspired the landscape's design. Viewers explore these mysterious regions close to home and the uncharted territories of their own minds.
In the midst of the native biota, vestiges of British colonial rule, and ruins of Palestinian settlements, players encounter the inhabitants of the cultural unconscious, who reside together to form the sites of the artist’s childhood memories.
