Doctoral Colloquium—Artmaking: From a Hands-On Process to a VR Translation

Abstract

In this doctoral colloquium a time when our lives become increasingly virtual, art follows. This research investigates the potential framework where the creative process in visual arts could be equally effective and intuitive in a virtual environment. This paper presents the main research questions of this PhD study. It describes the proposed methodology to answer those questions and identify a potential toolkit of existing VR platforms which could act as an analogue counterpart for the artist in a virtual environment.
