Abstract

It seems that the whole world tries to compensate for all the sufferings Van Gogh experienced during his lifetime, and quarries of light are no exception. It uses immersive technology to bring life to Van Gogh's works, making these masterpieces even more impressive. This article explains the similarity between the features of Van Gogh's bedroom and the conception of 'Total Image', answering why Van Gogh's paintings like his bedroom are especially suitable for using immersive technology. The essay also gives guidelines about how to demonstrate famous artworks creatively with the help of modern technology. By searching the internet, the studies related to quarries of light are rarely seen, but resources about Van Gogh and his works are abundant. This paper combines immersive technology with Van Gogh's paintings, which provides an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the relationship between visual technology and art.
