Miami's KROMA Art Space & Studios Unveils 1st Virtual Reality Exhibit produced by Eolian

MIAMI - Feb. 9, 2017 - PRLog -- KROMA Art Space and Studios recently unveiled a new exhibition called AfrotechVR. AfrotechVR incorporates virtual reality with traditional art mediums to transport gallery viewers into a new world of creativity. The piece is an extension of a larger art installation at Kroma called Afrotech: The future of the Afro American Narrative. Afrotech and the Afrotech VR Experience feature the works of Mshindo Kuumba and Ashley Woods.

To produce this cutting edge piece, KROMA enlisted EOLIAN, a mixed reality software and content development firm based in the New York City area.

"EOLIAN'S techniques for rapidly prototyping and producing VR content from traditional media, remotely, were critical in making this a success," says Rodney Jackson, Executive Director of the KROMA Art Space and Studios.

"We're proud to be part of this project and work with KROMA on their mission to serve as an affordable and contemporary space for local artists. The creative output of these artists will be an extraordinary advancement in connecting Coconut Grove's rich past, present, and future," says John Cannizzaro, COO of EOLIAN.
