HOUSE OF PRESENCE
VR PASSAGE
A twelve-minute guided journey through the invisible geometry of colour, body and attention.
Duration
12 min
Stations
6 seated stations
Format
Standalone VR headsets
Audience
Ages 12+ / 30 visitors per cycle
Before entering the physical space, visitors are invited to put on a headset and step inside the paintings. The VR programme is not a reproduction of the exhibition; it is a parallel world where the abstract forms of Hilma af Klint, Emma Kunz and Georgiana Houghton become environments the body can move through.
Journey Flow
Threshold
A dark room. A single breath. The headset softens the edges of the museum.
→ Sit, adjust the headset, close your eyes for three seconds.
Descent into Geometry
Spirals and concentric forms drift around you like slow planets.
→ Turn your head. The forms respond to your gaze and begin to unfold.
Colour as Atmosphere
The space fills with magenta, cyan and gold. Colour becomes weather you walk through.
→ Reach toward a colour cloud. It opens into a sound.
The Body Map
A faint outline of your own body appears, traced by light.
→ Move slowly. The outline follows, leaving a trail of particles.
Return
The geometry collapses into a single point of white light.
→ Remove the headset. The physical room now feels different.
