Against All Odds
Against All Odds is a VR experience that focuses on creating empathy by means of light, sound, and a minimalist approach to materiality. The user experiences this world from a child’s perspective as they attempt to escape from a holding facility, only to walk into a hate speech rally and be followed by menacing, faceless figures. This VR piece embodies the narrative of “children in cages” in an effort to expose the user to an ongoing humanitarian catastrophe at the U.S. Texas border that is fueled by the hate rhetoric of the current U.S. administration.
