DISCOURSE ON THE IMAGE OF VIRTUAL REALITY GRAFFITI ART: FROM PUBLIC SPACE TO VIRTUAL SPACE

Helmi Zuhdi, Irma Damajanti, Ira Adriati

Abstract


Abstract. Current technological developments are characterized by various innovations, ranging from network speeds to artificial intelligence. These advancements have propelled the existence of modern technology, initially emerging as tools to assist humans in their daily lives. The use of Virtual Reality (VR) helps to display elements that do not exist in the real world, presenting them through digital media as if they were real. VR Graffiti has become a solution for artists who wish to create works without getting their hands dirty or disturbing public spaces. VR offers various conveniences by transcending physical and virtual realities. However, how do practitioners and the public view these developments? This research aims to understand the perspectives of both practitioners and the public towards VR graffiti using an imagological approach. The scope of graffiti objects analyzed in this study is limited to those that are legally present. By understanding various viewpoints of practitioners towards VR graffiti, this research can provide an overview of the discourse on how VR graffiti is perceived by the general public and practitioners alike.
