Exploring the interior of masterpieces considered milestones in the history of art, such as The Dance Class by Edgar Degas and Relativity by M. C. Escher, allows visitors to closely observe the highly detailed reconstruction in comparison with the originals.
Finally, visitors can engage in a reconstruction game involving a fragmented sculpture (Apollo and Daphne by Gian Lorenzo Bernini).
REDISCOVER FAMOUS WORKS OF ART FROM AN UNUSUAL PERSPECTIVE
One of the most renowned works of the Impressionist master can be experienced immersively, surrounded by other works of the same genre, recreating a crowded dance class with ballerinas faithfully reproduced in a painterly style.
The virtual reconstruction is loosely inspired by Escher’s print Relativity, preserving its geometric paradoxes while introducing variations in setting and characters; moreover, as visitors move through the environment, they experience shifts in perspective.
Bernini’s work depicts Apollo pursuing the nymph Daphne, who, in order to escape him, asks the gods to transform her into a tree. The sculpture is broken into multiple pieces that the visitor must reassemble according to the original model.
