 Info & tickets
Detail of a virtual room in a psychedelic computer game aesthetic. A seemingly motionless person lies on a pedestal at the far end of the room, which is open to the sky. The walls and floor of the room landscape are covered with mythical-looking patterns. The view to the sky is unobstructed.
