Welcome to Arts Commons Presents: This Feels So Real

Inspired by the public art piece of the same name, This Feels So Real video series asks artists to turn their creative eye and ability towards this new world we live in and distill the big ideas and problems we’re now facing into something human-sized and understandable.

Our first guest, Rob Knudsen, is the creator of the This Feels So Real public art piece at Arts Commons, which along with being a favourite Instagram spot, encourages people to question the difference between what we perceive to be true and reality. So, in this first interview we chat with Rob who connects his piece This Feels So Real to street art, Pokemon Go, and how to view the world differently – and perhaps in a better way.
