An Orchard

An Orchard, by artists Bob Bicknell-Knight and Rosa-Maria Nuutinen, is a first-person exploration game which includes 3D models and photos that were produced on a work trip to Japan in 2023.

Created over the course of a weekend, it's essentially a modern take on a slideshow presentation, a series of photos on physical slides that a family friend or distant relative would force you to sit through after returning from a holiday; important and captivating for them, enabling them to relive the memories of their recent trip, but not so much for you, who never made the original memories to begin with.

The artists invite you to explore the collected ephemera whilst reflecting on your own experiences of travel and exploration.
