The show is projected on every surface around you, this makes you feel as though you have stepped directly into a Van Gogh painting. We accompany the show with a beautiful score and include many other surprises!

Immersive shows like ‘Beyond Van Gogh’ are future of art, expert says
Beyond Van Gogh exhibit pairs traditional art with technology
‘Beyond Van Gogh’ brings ‘The Starry Night’ and more to life with North Charleston exhibit
When most people think of Van Gogh, they are immediately drawn to his emotional journey and his role as tortured artist.
For the first time we allow you to be fully immersed in the mind of Vincent Van Gogh. A virtual reality journey that allows Vincent, through his own letters and words talk you through his artistic process and how he navigates his mental reality and uses paint as the translator of Human Experience.
See the words from his letters be replaced with broad strokes of paint as they transform from the page onto the canvas and grasp the connection between reality and the world, he created for himself and, unknowingly, created in perpetuity for the rest of us.
“You tell me not to give myself too many worries and that better days will come again for me. I’d say that these better days have already begun for myself, when I glimpse the possibility of completing, to some extent, the work…”
