Toronto's New Art Exhibit Lets You Step Right Into Frida Kahlo's World Of Magic Realism

The 360-degree experience is opening this spring.

Lead Writer, Travel

Yet another extraordinary art exhibit is coming to Toronto, and this time, you can step into the world of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. Frida: Immersive Dream is brought to life by Lighthouse Immersive, the same people behind shows like Immersive Van Gogh, and it will open in the city on March 31, 2022.

The exhibit will transform a massive warehouse into a dazzling spectacle of lights and colour. The walls will crawl with projections of Kahlo's renowned work.

The experience boasts 500,000 cubic feet of art and tells her story through over 1 million frames of video. The projections are accompanied by a musical score.

Tickets go on sale on November 30 and can be purchased online.
