Collective Body is an interactive, virtual reality experience that invites us to meet ourselves and each other through movement.

Set in the middle of a New Mexican storm, participants are guided to rediscover their first ways of engaging with the world, symbolizing formative life events that culminate in a shared exploration of our embodied selves. These key moments—beginning alone, discovering the unfamiliar, first encounters, and joyfully moving together—represent how our personal and collective stories are written through movement.

Designed for 4 participants or more, Collective Body asks: how does a body hold histories over time and how are those histories felt and shared?

Collective Body was commissionned by the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts,with the support of Centre National du Cinéma et de l'Image animée, Ville de Paris, Region Provence-Alpes-Côte-d'Azur, Institut Français and Centre des Arts d'Enghien-les-bains.

In cooperation with the Mitteldeutschen Medienförderung (MDM)
