Let's get behind the scenes of artist Marina Abramović's latest VR project on the effects of climate change and rising sea levels, produced in collaboration with Acute Art—a leading partner for contemporary art production in virtual and augmented reality.

Abramović's full VR experience will be shown at the 58th Venice Biennale. Guests wear immersive headsets that allow them to come face-to-face with the artist as she stands in a glass tank slowly filling with water. Rising shows how the VR experience was created, and gives Abramović an opportunity to explain how her project aims to raise empathy for the planet.

Phi will present Marina Abramović and Mexican artist Renata Morales during the 58th Venice Biennale at Ca' Rezzonico, Venice, 6 May – 6 July 2019
