Non-space I (the degrading idea of home) - This work seeks to displace and reformulate the social aspect of the WebVR space.

Concept and realization: Commonolithic.

Rigor Mortis - In this exhibition, the museum is turned into a horror movie setting, where the feeling of reality is distorted: logic falters, the body is shredded, inert objects become animated - life and death, dream and reality get confused. Creation & research: Renato Pera. 3D art: Caio Fazolin. Collaboration: Jye O'Sullivan and Marcos Pavão.
