VR Project | 2023
Unity Developer, Environment Designer, Technical Art Director, VFX Supervisor

is a virtual reality experience and interactive installation, part of Hexastra Exhibition at Monopol in September 2023.

Collaborated with an interdisciplinary team, including a 3D designer and sound designer, to create a fully immersive VR experience, leading technical and creative elements in Unity. I developed and optimized interactive environments, ensuring high visual cohesion and quality, while setting the tone and narrative through detailed landscapes and atmospheric effects. By integrating particle systems and dynamic visuals, I enhanced both the realism and emotional depth, crafting a seamless, engaging world for users to explore.

The VR experience bridges to Lisa Bot’s interactive sculpture; two works linked by breath. The sounds of inhale and exhale ease the user into the space of her kinetic structures. Her work reflects growth in an up and down continuous cycle. Rising up in the form of release- feeling successful - trying to meet outside expectations. Drowning and Suffocation from (societal) pressure, outside sources, and setbacks.
