ABOUT THE CONCEPT
In my years of working and researching in Performance Art, I faced some problems with the documentation and with other artists' archived material.
There is a need in approaching the material of a performance; it is not about having the accurate factors, but to achieve a similar sensation.
Thus, the International Virtual Archive of Performance Art is an archive developed in Virtual Reality environment. The purpose of this archive is to preserve and display performance and help the audience to immerse to each archived artwork.
