Immersive Frida Kahlo, a 360-degree immersive experience, with large-scale projections accompanied by a ravishing musical score, allows audiences to step inside the colorful and vibrant world of Frida Kahlo like never before.
Immersive Frida Kahlo is a new immersive experience from Lighthouse Immersive, the producers of the original Immersive Van Gogh. Kahlo’s work bridges surrealist and magic realism traditions – blending authentic depictions of her life with fantastical elements reflecting her inner thoughts and struggles. Folk art, mysticism, surrealism, magic realism, and a notably revealing series of self-portraits are all included in the projections. Among the works featured in the piece are The Two Fridas (1939), The Wounded Deer (1946), and Diego and I (1946), intermingled with an assortment of photographs, drawings, and iconography. Alongside her paintings, Siccardi’s piece also includes photos of Kahlo at various ages and images of figures from Kahlo’s life that influenced her worldview. The projections are shown on Lighthouse Immersive’s massive architectural canvas, using state-of-the-art projectors for a crisp image and high-quality sound systems that heighten the mood-setting score.
