A glimpse into the cultural capital program

Esch2022 – European Capital of Culture presents an interactive multimedia experience bringing together users in Linz and Luxembourg and those online in an opportunity to explore the past and present of Belval, a former steel production site turned into a center of contemporary experimentation for urban, economic and cultural development. This installation will connect users across real and virtual spaces in an immersive experience featuring the work of visual artist Mary-Audrey Ramirez.

Translating the fantasy worlds of gaming culture into artistic explorations, Mary-Audrey Ramirez constructs a universe of soft sculpture creatures, an animal kingdom reflecting our own human needs, projections and desires. As part of the journey through Belval, her installations will appear as disruptive interludes contributing to further blurring the boundaries between fiction and reality, the physical and the digital space.
