ArtSpaceVR Presents: The POPOVY SISTERS
We are honoured to host the Popovy Sisters at ArtSpaceVR Exhibition Centre, with an innovative space design and a special collection of Fine-Art-Dolls. The sisters themselves will attend our events and you will be able to meet them in world and learn more about their extraordinary fine-art-dolls creation. ArtSpaceVR functions as an open workshop with continuously developing VR exhibits. The fine-art-dolls will perform as “actroids” in NYMPHS - a VR Requiem.

ABOUT THE CREATORS
The Popovy Sisters: “We have been creating Fine Art Dolls since 2004. Along with fashion design, it has given us the freedom to express our contemporary and cosmopolitan vision of beauty. We believe, that it is our mission to tell a story, each time a new one, allowing you to dream and escape into a world of unfettered imagination. Until now, our creation was based on handmade art objects, yet now we open a new page in our history by bringing them into the exciting universe of VR. So much can be done, and this is just the beginning!”
