Queerskins: ARK #VR #Premiere at The Venice International Film Festival Will Feature an Exclusive Private World/ #Interactive #Art #Installation in #VRChat

VRchat gang

We have finally found our queer home–psychologically architected domestic space, unlike anything I have ever seen. Imagine a dream in which you are wearing your still beating heart on your sleeve…
Because of the content–some of it quite sexual, Queerskins is a private world, curated from our extensive archive of images and audio,  collected over the last ten years, in VRChat. Space will be limited. We will be offering exclusive “installation” walkthroughs lead by artists from Queerskins ARK VR , an Intel Studios original, (co-produced by Cloudred and Intel Studios)  and talks (not the usual if you know me) by me, Cyril Tsiboulski, and choreographer Brandon Powers. We will have a better sense of how we will invite interested people into our world during The Venice International Film Festival in the coming week or so. If you have a Quest, Vive, Oculus,  or PC (for online access to VRChat) and want to beta test the world, leave your interest in comments and how to best reach you.

 

If you are or know a curator or press interested in cutting-edge new media art and/or immersive storytelling, please let us know so we can offer them an invite.

  1. This is exciting – I’m connected with The Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art and the Denver Art Museum of Art – I’ll contact them and recap my conversations with them – Susan (so proud)
