DocLab: VR Gallery
Description
The DocLab VR Gallery brings together a selection of this year’s best virtual reality works, each with its own story to tell and way of inviting you into it. Discover how artists and filmmakers use VR to shape a different relationship between you and the people, places and perspectives in their work.
What to expect?
The VR Gallery is a space inside the main DocLab exhibition at de Brakke Grond. When you arrive, a volunteer will scan your ticket and welcome you to your booth. Your headset is reserved for you throughout a 50-minute session. You decide which works to experience from a menu (see the full selection below). No previous VR experience is needed: a volunteer will explain the headset, talk you through the selection and help you choose. You’re welcome to pause or stop any experience. All works are wheelchair accessible and can be experienced both seated and standing. If you feel dizzy, nauseous or uncomfortable, you can best close your eyes or remove the headset and let a volunteer know.
Your ticket also includes access to the rest of the DocLab exhibition, so take some time to explore the other works on show before or after your VR session.
No ticket, or sold out? Free walk-in spots are available every hour. Availability is limited. Come to de Brakke Grond and ask a volunteer where you can find the VR Gallery.

Composition
The Invisible Woman VR
The 17th-century free Black woman Francisca de Angola, recorded in Amsterdam’s archives as a troublemaker, is in danger of being forgotten—unless the 21st-century journalist Idil can join her own voice with Francisca’s in this VR opera.
Tartupaluk
Colorful and playful VR experience in which Inuk artist Laakkuluk invites you to immerse yourself in an Inuit utopia: the imaginary Republic of Tartupaluk, a circumpolar nation of lovers.
Uprooted
In this VR experience, you embark on a long journey across the world from the perspective of a rare succulent. The experience prompts reflection on the complex balance between nature and humanity.
Raj'in
Using security-camera footage, smartphone videos, and 360° footage, visitors experience the violence of Israeli colonialism unfiltered, as three Palestinian protagonists endure it again and again in the West Bank.
Body Count
In this virtual reality experience, you enter a small Berlin apartment. The rooms are empty, but the voices of two men fill the space. As they have sex, they answer each other’s intimate questions, revealing how war and violence have shaped their lives.

IDFA DocLab Program & Competition
Marking its 20th edition, IDFA DocLab: Shared Realities looks back on two decades of pioneering interactive and immersive documentary art, while asking: In a world where it has become easier than ever to retreat into realities of our own making, can we still commit to sharing one?
