Featured Events in Detroit in September, 2023 (July Updated)

Experience the innovative virtual and digital exhibition, "Mike Han: United by Design," at the VR Closing Reception hosted by CultureVerse during Detroit Month of Design 2023. Join us to explore the artwork of Mike Han in augmented reality, as he showcases his creative practice inspired by his Korean heritage, graffiti, and modern design. The virtual gallery, created with SaganWorks, offers a unique virtual reality experience, while the AR sculpture, developed in collaboration with BrandXR, adds an interactive element to the exhibition. "The House of Han from A to D," debuted in 2022, delves into the physical and digital realms we inhabit and the impact we have on the environment. Mike Han's work explores sustainability and our perception of value through separate yet interconnected digital and analog art pieces. CultureVerse's mission is to provide access to projects, storytelling, and creative expression for the local and global community. By offering technology, training, consultation, and resources, we aim to create equitable and sustainable opportunities in the art world. Our goal is to bridge the gap between creators and the community, enriching people's lives through art and knowledge. At the VR Closing Reception, you will also be able to experience various design collaborations, including 3D printed tables with Haddy, a rug collection with Gardner-White Furniture, and a new modular wall art system developed with Leon Speakers. Additionally, the exhibit will feature recent collaborations with SEE Eyewear, Detroitissimi, and CultureVerse.
