Knowing DEVIATE is an experiential, interactive art event, how do you envision participating and building your booth?
I envision creating dynamic gestural figure forms via Virtual Reality headgear, with large monitors on each side of me that will allow onlookers to view what am creating in the 3D virtual realm. Virtual world canvas prints will be available for sale.
