Jonathan Yeo Studio vs Astera

Jonathan Yeo Studio is an experimental AR app which invites the user inside the studio of one of the world’s leading portraitists, witness him painting the chef and campaigner Jamie Oliver over FaceTime and explore multiple forms of interactive content throughout the space. Reversing the standard Augmented Reality device of overlaying a 3D object in your physical space, here the space itself becomes the object. This is a unique opportunity to glimpse the artist’s working methods, watch a brand new type of portrait practice, and hear some of the intimate and entertaining conversation which ensues. It also allows the user to freely move around the space and record their own photos and videos as if they were in the real studio. A secondary gallery space has been added to the experience providing an opportunity for users to see the back catalogue of Jonathan’s paintings in an exhibition format, with further interactive content to be found. This app has been developed and realised in-house by Jonathan Yeo and his team. We will continue to update the app with new elements so please do check in again, and send us any suggestions, thoughts or feedback. _______________________________________________________ Features - Augmented reality app that allows you to experience the enchanting and unique painting studio of one of the world’s leading portrait painters (in full 3D not just 360 capture) - Eavesdrop on the previously unseen and private world of the portrait sitting with some entertaining insights - Visit the connected gallery space to see an exhibition of Jonathan’s most famous portraits and an introduction to his sculptural work - Explore the entire app for further pieces of interactive content.
