COMING SOON - An award-winning VR Documentary, exploring the rich inner world that remains when everything has been washed away.

In The World Came Flooding In, lost objects and spaces are recreated by the artists in collaboration with flood affected people. Experience this award-winning VR Documentary, exploring the rich inner world that remains when everything has been washed away.

You will hear from three people - Marina, Antoinette and Tom, in their own words as they share their stories of living through a flood, separated by thousands of kilometres but connected by shared experience. Using cardboard and other simple materials, the artists artfully recreate the lost homes of each storyteller in miniature, then, via photogrammetry the rooms are translated into virtual reality.

The result is an evocative and wondrous tour through memory spaces. This is a lyrical and unique experiential work that explores personal memory, grief and loss, and the shared experience of an extreme climate event.

Note: This VR Documentary is recommended for ages 15 years and above. Parental Guidance recommended.
