Viewers can also expect ‘Poppies 1873’ and ‘Haystack at the end of Summer 1891’.
The digital art experience will be based in North Belfast’s architectural building of Carlisle Memorial Church, located at Carlisle Circus. Built in 1975 the church is recognised as one of the 100 most endangered historic buildings in the world.
Organised by Exhibition Hub who has produced more than 70 exhibitions worldwide to millions of viewers, they are showcasing Claude Monet: the Immersive Experience across both American and European Cities.
Monet is credited for being the co-founder of the Impressionist art movement in which they were known to rewrite the rules of the art work. His colour palette is subtle which will allow the virtual reality experience to present a calm and relaxing atmosphere to its target market.
The event's open hours will vary from Thursdays to Mondays and the show will last approximately 90 minutes. Accessibility will be available to all wheelchair users and the event brands itself as ‘pram-friendly’ as all ages are welcome.
In association with Fever, the tickets are expected to go on sale on Thursday, June 8 at 11am. You can purchase your tickets and find out more here.
