Who:Tyron, founder of ARTVAGO, an independent Second Life creator with a focus on Black art, tribal textures, and symbolic expression.
What:
ARTVAGO is a new virtual art and style project that blends handcrafted textures, ritual aesthetics, and immersive design. It offers original objects like tribal-inspired collars, ceremonial tools, and interactive art pieces — all created with visual storytelling in mind. Visitors can explore the collection via the ARTVAGO Sampler HUD, which includes textures, samples, and complimentary gifts.
Where:
ARTVAGO is based in two main spaces within Second Life:
The Marketplace store, where exclusive objects and full collections are available for purchase. Some items are only sold here, while others can also be previewed in-world.
The ARTVAGO Gallery, a small urban-style loft designed as a welcoming and immersive exhibition space. It’s not just a display room — it’s curated like a real-life city gallery, with rotating objects, symbolic installations, and a quiet atmosphere to explore virtual Black art up close.
When:
The project soft-launched earlier this month, with new items and collaborations rolling out weekly. The ARTVAGO Sampler HUD is now available for creators, bloggers, and curious visitors.
Why:
ARTVAGO aims to bring a fresh artistic voice to unexpected corners of SL — with cultural depth, strong visuals, and a touch of protest. It’s a creative hobby with roots in activism and aesthetics, and an invitation to experience virtual art differently.
