这两年VR是热门话题,有这么一位出生在希腊雅典的艺术家做了一个叫做《Self Portrait自画像 (Interior 内观)》的作品,大家先来看看动图,画风是这样的……

是的,这是一个VR虚拟现实的装置游戏。如果你带上VR头盔进入虚拟世界,顺着那长长的,淌着口水的,光洁粗糙的舌头,对,顺着那条舌头!操控着进入他的嘴,你会有所感悟的……

好,来段video看看

(……想试试么?文末有彩蛋!)

这就是设计此作品的艺术家来自希腊的Theo Triantafyllidis,是不是挺有范儿的。

Self Portrait一直是艺术家们喜欢的创作形式,有国外艺术院校求学经历的朋友说不定还记得自己用来申请院校的作品集中也总是拿自画像充数。

Theo在这个作品中,一边诱惑你游览了他的体内器官,一边还能不时听到来自他心灵深处的思想,欲望,恐惧幻化出的呢喃……十分生动。

出生于1988年的Theo Triantafyllidis,之前一直在希腊研修建筑,2016年才在著名的美国加州大学洛杉矶分校UCLA研究所,拿到了 Design | Media Arts专业的MFA硕士。来自UCLA的大牛多不胜数,VR这一代表当下技术创新的流行手段也是愈来愈多被大家用到了作品当中。
