Divine Mercy VR is an extension of my work ‘Divine Mercy’, which consists of a 1:35 scale diorama with dimension of 1m x 1.1m and a resulting 3-channel and single channel video versions.

In Divine Mercy VR the spectator gets scaled down to about 5.2cm and can experience the scenery of the diorama from inside. The spectator can freely walk around and listen to the minds of the people that got trapped in this dimensional and temporal rift, shoot ghosts, pumpkins and chemical waste barrels and explore a variety of other strange incidents.

The work is realized in Unity with the HDRP render pipeline. It works on a Desktop PC with Oculus Quest / Rift.
