Constantly improving her technique and pushing the boundaries of virtual reality, Anna's immersive artworks look like real oil paintings from any angles. At a TEDx conference[3], she adopted the term ‘Volumism’ to describe her immersive creations of sculptured paint, because of "the way this technology offers to create any volume and breaks the laws of gravity".

Mixed reality art

For every artwork, Anna produces a mixed reality video. This technique allows a person not equipped with a virtual reality headset, to watch her paint inside the virtual world. The videos are then shared on social networks.
