Throughout May, Port Macquarie’s CBD is pregnant with creative exchange. All you need is a Smart Phone and you can unlock a new world virtual art.

(Un)Seen Sculptures is ‘a mobile 3D augmented reality art show’ created by Sydney-based web developer and new media artist Warren Armstrong, and touring in conjunction with dLux MediaArts. Not unlike Bondi’s infamous Sculpture by the Sea exhibition, Armstrong has created a virtual version of the sculpture walk.
