Eurydice Rising
She was deep within herself, like a woman heavy
with child, and did not see the man in front
or the path ascending steeply into life.
Let us help her rise...

Excerpt from the press release:
In his search for ways to give the digital brushstrokes back their materiality and bring them over to "our side" of reality, Rudolph has begun painting sections of his virtual works in a thick impasto technique with oil paint on canvas. Using an augmented reality app he developed, which visitors download onto their smartphones, the digitally painted figures in augmented reality emerge from the paintings at the exact points where Rudolph painted sections in oil. At this moment, the painting loses its abstraction and we realize that the physical painting is part of a larger visual digital world.
In "Frieze of the Gods II" by Dennis Rudolph, the immaterial messengers of Greek mythology perform a dramatic choreography. And because, according to the artist, "everything (is) possible in the vitual world," Eurydice also succeeds in her ascent, which, according to the Greek myth,

had been denied her because her love Orpheus could not withstand the test set for him. AR now makes the experience of the transition from one reality to another possible, so that the "underworld" alone is still perceived as another reality - e.g., as VR=virtual reality. And so Eurydice can - according to allegorical understanding - "ascend", i.e. wander through the realities.
