My Grandmother’s Bedroom


2024-2025

My Grandmother’s Bedroom is an interactive VR experience that explores memory, intergenerational connection, and the way physical spaces preserve identity. Users navigate a digitally reconstructed version of my grandmother Barbara’s bedroom, interacting with heirlooms and everyday belongings that tell the story of her life and our relationship. Personal memories and family history unfold through audio narratives voiced by myself and my mother, inviting reflection on how memory lives on through the things we leave behind. By leveraging VR’s immersive potential, the project allows users to step into and experience the atmosphere of this intimate space firsthand, emphasizing the emotional weight a room can carry.
