Strangeways is a surreal, hand-drawn immersive art experience built for VRChat, where I created the custom avatars and contributed world animation to bring Chris Bianchi’s unique visual style to life.

The project received international recognition as a nominee for Best Art World at Raindance Immersive 2024 and was officially selected for the Venice Immersive Competition at the 81st La Biennale di Venezia, standing alongside some of the world’s leading XR experiences.
These four Avatars are available for the audience to embody, becoming active participants in the Strangeways experience.
