Travel through Goa through this VR project led by artist Subodh Kerkar

The children of the Samarpan Foundation in

Panjim

have acted as the star cast in a special VR art project, called ‘The Fair Grounds’. Specially for the LaLaLand Festival, the Goan artist

Subodh Kerkar

collaborated with a media art collect from the

Netherlands

. In a 2 minute 360 degree movie, visitors of the festival will experience a unique trip through Goa. From the Panjim church through the Fountainhas to the

Aquada Fortress

in Sinquirim.

On their route the children painted antique rocking chairs and an old ‘palanquine’ sitting object in the modernist and abstract red-yellow-and-blue bright colour scheme, colouring their world to their own insights. These chairs do not only play an important role in the movie, they also form a colourful ‘train’ where visitors can take a place during the festival. By wearing VR glasses, they will be virtually guided by the children in their world that will be a mix of reality and fantasy.
