Last year, street artist Shepard Fairey, best known as the founder of OBEY clothing and the creator of the prolific “Hope” image featuring former President Barack Obama, launched “DAMAGED,” a wildly popular, limited run art exhibit in Los Angeles. It was the artist/activists largest solo exhibition to date, offering a selection of artwork centered around the “diverse Americans most affected by current policies and social issues.”
Captured and preserved using advanced laser scanning and volumetric photogrammetry technology, that same exhibit is now available to view from home using virtual and augmented reality. Users can download the “DAMAGED”app on a variety of major headsets to enter an immersive, VR showroom of interactive artwork, complete with over 100 minutes of narration by Shepard himself.
