Artists are shifting from traditional viewing experiences to immersive 3D environments that visitors can explore.​

Featured Works:

  • Whispers Beneath Bubble by @Moppundo1 - An underwater sanctuary filled with bioluminescent jellyfish, a glowing tree, and ambient whale calls

  • Forgotten Sense by Sara Shakeel - A crystalline environment that plays with light, sparkle, and reflection

  • Synthetic Rest by Johanna Jaskowska - A space designed around the concept of stillness

These projects demonstrate how 3D digital worlds enable artists to create experiences rather than objects.​ Instead of observing art from a distance, visitors move through these environments, interacting with light, sound, and space in ways that traditional mediums cannot offer.​

The shift represents a fundamental change in how art can be experienced - from passive observation to active participation within the artwork itself.​
