Illusory Quadrants: Cosmos of Emotions, 2023, Visual Reality Art
This artwork, created in VR using Tilt Brush on Oculus Quest 2, is a unique, four-layered, three-dimensional piece set within a sphere. The bottom layer represents autumn, artistically crafted with maple trees and leaves, transitioning upwards through a layer of falling snowflakes. Viewers can peer through a hole to the second layer, which embodies winter with an expansive ice lake, surrounded by pine trees and illuminated by the Northern Lights, evoking an Arctic ambiance. Connecting stairways lead to the third layer, a lush spring meadow abundant with trees and flowers. The topmost layer features a floating oceanic castle, symbolizing summer. This utopian creation, devoid of worries and exuding tranquility, reflects the artist’s diverse emotional states during its conception. It aims to offer a unique visual experience, presenting surreal, logic-defying scenes that resonate with varying emotions.
