Absolutely fascinating! When you walk through the door you’re greeted by art. However, after a guided tour, and using your smartphone to scan the QR code, everything is transformed before your eyes. The images come to life and your imagination is taken on a rich, vibrant colour-filled, thought-provoking ride of Jamaican culture.

Such was the case at the ‘Don Dada’ Mango Augmented Reality Art Show, an immersive exhibition fusing augmented reality with art, hosted by Bonito ‘Don Dada’ Thompson and Alexia James at the AC Hotel last Saturday.
