Within Workspace Unlimited (WU), Van Den Bulcke and Soetens work on creating hybrid spaces where the thin line between the reality of the physical environment and perceptual reality becomes blurred. “What we experience in virtual space changes our perception of our experience of reality.”
The collective’s investigations examine media culture, traditional conceptions of space, perception, representation, and the boundary between the real and the plausible.
Van Den Bulcke and Soetens’ latest project, RealTime UnReal, a double, stereoscopic projection commissioned by the Museum of the Moving Image in New York for its reopening this past January, is presented as part of the Projections series.
