Deep Space 8K

Opera is a cycle of a five-minute animation created by the prize-winning filmmaker and artist Erick Oh. Each section is inextricably linked with the activities of the individual characters, ultimately enabling the viewer to enjoy a complex construction of a vibrant pyramid, regardless of which character they watch first.

Visiting the Deep Space presentations is only possible with a pre-booked ticket. Tickets are available at the Ars Electronica Center’s infodesk and can only be booked for the respective time slot of the museum visit ticket.

Opera, Erick Oh
