# Moody Virtual Design Exhibits Fictions Provides an Immersive Deep Dive into Contemporary Design By Josh Thompson-Persaud | Published 2021-05-03 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fictions References: [design-milk](https://design-milk.com/fictions-by-collectif-des-createurs-canadiens/) & [cccollective.org](https://www.cccollective.org/en/fictions) The recently launched Fictions [virtual exhibition](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arnardo-collection), created by Collectif des Créateurs Canadiens and arranged by Nicolas Bellavance-Lecompte, is an apprehensive peek into a post-apocalyptic setting featuring fresh modern designs. The exhibition draws influence from its hometown of Montreal, immersing the viewer in an intriguing visual experience that tells a fractured story through four separate camera angles, akin to surveillance cameras. True to their experimental nature, the designs obscure the boundaries between function and form and carry a contemporary, macabre air about them. Fictions features thirteen new creative works from eight Canadian designers, namely [Atelier Zébulon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fendi-casa) Perron, Claste Collection, David Umemoto, [Lambert & Fils](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/net-zero-ready-home), Loïc Bard, Pascale Girardin, SSSVLL, and Yannick Pouliot. The design collection will be sold at Adorno after the virtual exhibit's official launch on April 22nd.
