PERCEPTION(S)

The Orbe collective and Contour Progressif join forces to create Perception(s): an immersive digital environment that highlights the diversity of our senses and sensory systems.

Presented alongside On dirait que le soleil, this participatory installation aims to rethink inclusion, with the ambition of placing participants’ bodies — and the full range of their perceptual modes — at the heart of the experience. The goal: to feel, move, be moved, connect with others, represent oneself, and imagine alternative sensory worlds.

This participatory experience immerses participants in a space where light, sound, and vibration resonate with moving bodies. This relational environment enables a subtle exploration of sensation, a sensory encounter, and a collective dance, where a synchronized pulse harmonizes the group in a shared moment of trance.

This creation is at the heart of Cycle #2: PERCEVOIR, part of the FAIRE MONDE project.
