Where We Meet
Where We Meet is an interactive, audio-based dance installation where audiences can experience the inner thoughts of a dancer. This piece aims to open up the conversation about mental health and wellbeing and break down taboos by facilitating an empathetic and intimate experience. As audiences walk around the space and choose which performers to engage with, innovative location-tracking technology will trigger unique audio monologues and enable personal interactions with solo dancers.
