INTERACTIVE ART MUSEUM
ART IN ISLAND
CUBAO, QUEZON CITY
With over 50 trick art murals painted by a team of 18 Korean
master painters, Art Island lets you experience a
multidimensional adventure. More than just paintings, they give
guests a certain illusion from a specific angle, making it a perfect
backdrop for your photos.
A typical museum lets you appreciate art within a few meters to
avoid any contact with the masterpiece. However, a trip to a one
of a kind museum in Cubao, Quezon City will make your fantasies
come alive. Art in Island is an interactive museum that lets you be
a part of the artwork. All you need to bring is your smartphone or
camera and with just a snap away, the paintings will come to life!

Note: This museum is one of the example of installation art
