BOM presents In Real Life (IRL), an exhibition created and curated by cybertwee.
About
In Real Life (IRL) is a soft, rainbow coloured environment that challenges the traditional aesthetics of sci fi found in video games, movies and online. By immersing yourself into this fictional world, you are invited to contemplate a sci-fi future that is romantic, cute and feminine.
In our increasingly-connected world, the internet, smartphones and social media have distorted the lines between fantasy and reality. Many of us curate ideal versions of our lives and moodboard world experiences that may otherwise be inaccessible to us. cybertwee’s work explores how we can create an IRL version of that kind of space, one that feels both safe and excitingly alien.
