Abstract

Heritage visualisations are interpretations situated in place and time. They are shaped by the assumptions of the day and contain informed speculations. This paper describes Artistic License: VR Sydney Cove circa 1800 which is a VR artwork that directly addresses the liminal spaces of heritage visualisation. It examines the tensions between accuracy and authenticity in heritage visualisation and it discusses visual tropes in art. It concludes by arguing that the foregrounding of the interpretive nature of heritage visualisation by Artistic License: VR Sydney Cove circa 1800 directly engages with audiences to broaden the debate about the role of heritage in society.
