daniel arsham returns to miami
Daniel Arsham proposed an IRL metaverse experience that connects the physical and digital worlds by showing the Ares House in Miami’s Design District from December 1-3, 2022. Three-dimensional projection mapping is seamlessly intertwined to showcase a digitally enhanced immersion, a monumental digital structure that evokes an ancient, otherworldly civilization. Visitors are invited to explore the interior and exterior of the Ares House, which surrounds physical installation items, including Arsham-designed furniture and sculptural work, anchoring the viewer while anchoring them at the threshold between physical and digital.
‘There is a tremendous opportunity to take advantage of different environments in the Metaverse,’ aforementioned artist‘There are no limitations on scale, gravity, building codes or material costs. There are no seasons, no change of day or weather..
‘When creating House of Ares for The Row, I really wanted to push the boundaries in how we perceive and interact with these environments, but still retain the familiar elements. And now, with this installation, we’re able to create this extraterrestrial experience that you can really go through but that won’t actually be fully physically present on this planet..’
