Entering a New World
As soon as you walk into EtaMae and Jos’s specially designed room at the Souland Gallery, you feel like you’ve entered a different world—a stunning space where art, design, and technology come together to create something truly magical. Right away, the moving pictures, detailed lighting, and carefully built structures grab your attention and pull you into a unique adventure. Every part of the room, from the setup to the atmosphere, has been carefully planned to spark amazement and make you want to explore more.
At the entrance, you’ll see a tablet on the wall called the Environment Changer. This tool lets visitors change the settings of their surroundings to make the experience feel more personal and real. To get the most out of it, tap the tablet, agree to start the experience, and choose the advanced settings with mirrors turned on (PBR). This will unlock the room’s full potential, making EtaMae’s materials look even more stunning and bringing every detail to life.
The room uses high-tech projectors, light sensors, and a large PBR probe to create a magical atmosphere. However, Eta has made sure that even those who can’t use the advanced settings can still enjoy the beauty of the art. Her focus on accessibility shows her dedication to making the experience enjoyable and welcoming for everyone.
The Creative Partnership of EtaMae and Jos
Jos, the creative force behind the room’s design, brings a unique perspective to the space. His ideas include a tilted box shape, wavy floors, ceilings from his original work, and custom-made art frames that lean gracefully against the walls. His focus on structure and form blends perfectly with EtaMae’s lively and artistic style.
“Jos has a great sense of shape and design”, EtaMae said, “and he always aims to be original in his approach. He won’t share anything he’s not fully satisfied with, and that motivates me to challenge myself and grow.”
Together, Eta and Jos have created a space that is not only beautiful but also full of meaning. Their experiments with Blender, a design tool, add even more creativity to their work, as they turn simple shapes into detailed and captivating designs.
The Artworks: Exploring Abstract Expression
EtaMae’s exhibition highlights her famous Flesh Series, a group of works that mix abstract shapes, colors, and storytelling in a way that’s hard to define. Her art sparks curiosity and makes people think, often surprising viewers with its bold and original ideas.

Eta’s way of creating art is very personal. As she said, “A lot of my work is about playing with shapes and colors. I really like abstract art, and I’ve always avoided making things that are too ‘pretty.’ I want my art to make people think, even if it’s just surprising them a little.”
Her unique style, which includes cutting out shapes, using scripts, and trying out different textures, shows how much she enjoys exploring new ideas in Second Life. Her artwork, Flesh Revisited, is a great example of this. “It’s amazing to go back to this piece in a place where I don’t have to rush”, she said, appreciating the freedom to create at Souland.
For those who want to explore more, EtaMae’s abstract art opens the door to endless stories. Some might see a style similar to Hieronymus Bosch, with mythical creatures, deep meanings, and mysterious tales. Each piece encourages viewers to use their imagination, see the art in their own way, and maybe even get lost in a world of fantasy.
The joint exhibition by EtaMae and Jos at the Souland Gallery is something you shouldn’t miss if you’re looking for inspiration, self-reflection, or just a moment of wonder. The mix of modern design, incredible skill, and a deep knowledge of what’s possible in Second Life makes this show truly special.
