303 Gallery Exhibits the work of Contemporary Artists working in all media. 

303 Gallery

Aitken has created a gallery show, but here he has created both the architecture—the VR world—and the art within it. 

Each gallery will have Oculus headsets on hand for viewers to step into the world  Aitken has created. 

The world is spare and elegant, rather than hectic and hyper-everything, typical of video games or the VR visions of future dystopias. 





"[Aitken’s] latest creation allows viewers to step inside a dematerialized world of his own design…It’s hard to say whether VR exhibitions will ever become more than a novelty, but hopefully Aitken’s move away from the medium’s typical saturated video game aesthetic opens up new possibilities for experimentation within the space." -ARTnews

“I saw this as an opportunity to reinvent the exhibition space, where you could do things that don’t exist in the physical world,” Aitken told ARTnews.
