This is not a pipe. Nor is it a mirror, a window, a hat or reality. Explore Magritte’s trompe-l’oeil work through this virtual and interactive walk, where playing is an integral part of art, and art is child’s play.
Empire of the Ordinary is an immersion into the heart of a selection of iconic paintings by surrealist painter René Magritte, where viewers must solve a series of enigmas about optical illusions in order to find their way. This experience exploits the full potential of virtual reality, confronted with the work of the Belgian artist, whose works also question perspective and perception.
