MEHopper / Art

Mary E. Hopper creates new media art, and “most” of her art these days tends to be intertwined with her love of beaches. The galleries below showcase some of her work.

This post is about Hopper’s recent artistic adventure.

This 360° “Art Gallery” below is a Toy World. It is a diorama created with dollhouse furniture and miniature toys that are photographed with a RICOH THETA S 360° Camera. The resulting 360° image is posted on the Kuula 360° photo sharing service in order to add links to content on the Web.

Touch the 360° image to explore it, touch objects to find out about them, and touch door knobs to visit other Toy worlds.

There is a version in the virtual world SecondLife. Touch the image below to explore it.
