Come for the Instagram, stay for the art

Even as they fascinate the audience or freak them out, Rist's darkly fantastical works are in fact closer to traditional art forms than they might appear. "You don't see a lot of computer-generated art in her works. Maybe they've been digitally edited, or the colors enhanced. But 95 percent of the time, it's real things being photographed or filmed," Berger notes.

This makes Rist a true maverick in the field of immersive art. It also proves that while using the newest technology can help make an immersive experience more seamless, its ability to stir human emotions and enrich the mind probably comes from elsewhere.
