Artist in the Studio
metaverse experience
collab with Ksenia Kadi
Ever wondered what an artist channeling in the studio looks like? This spatial cinematic experience gives a unique opportunity to witness Nikita Shokhov’s ideation process.
The artist’s hologram invites the audience to virtually explore his studio in Brooklyn at the moment of creative conceptualization of his new artwork about the human condition in modern technology: quantum computing, machine learning, and human genome editing.
You can read fragments of the dialogue with the artist’s higher self or the artist’s unconscious, in terms of Carl Jung.
You find yourself in a true-scale Metaverse version of the artist’s studio at the International Studio and Curatorial Program (ISCP) artist residency, studio #202, Bushwick, New York, 2023.
For the best experience, watch it spatially: use a mobile device and switch to AR mode.
Premiered at the metaverse show Quantum Critic at Myymälä2 Gallery, Helsinki, Finland.
8 minutes long, silent.
