Metaland - Paint

What is a painting? We can define it as painted an image created through virtual brushes?
Paint is a three-dimensional virtual painting, a reconstruction of the landscape of Tarcento (Udine) which incorporates its natural and forest elements, filtered and reworked through memory and interpretation.
The painting is visible through Oculus, a virtual reality viewer, and can be explored in the round, at 360 degrees.

Metaland is a series of works that investigate the relationship between the visible and the invisible, between virtual and physical reality. Man is able to perceive reality through the senses, but technology has increased the tools available to him.
Through technological devices, it is possible to access new dimensions of reality that were previously inaccessible.
But what is real? Can we consider real a dimension that can only be explored through a viewer or a cell phone? Is it really possible to experience an invisible and intangible reality? Is it possible to create a dialogue, a common ground between virtual reality and physical reality?
The work explores the relationship between nature and virtual reality and raises new questions regarding the definition of the boundaries between visible and invisible realities.
Through a mix of innovative and traditional techniques, the series of works aims to create a synergistic relationship between these realities.
