Museum of Symmetry

2018~ 20 minInteractive: VR/AR/Mixed Reality

By: Paloma Dawkins

Production: Maral MohammadianMichael Fukushima

“There are no rules here. Just enjoy.”

Part invitation, part dare, an impish game mistress welcomes you into a delightfully disorienting pleasure dome inspired by geometry and nature—and wired with infectious dance beats.

What happens next feels like swimming through poetic rainbow juice.

An absurdist mind-and-body romp through the highest clouds to the ocean deep, Museum of Symmetry is the explosive feel-good alter-universe of cartoonist and animator Paloma Dawkins—a room-scale VR experience with 2D animation in a 3D playground as never been seen before.
