Astral Projections is a living installation and a performance that is situated somewhere in between dream and fiction. The work is inspired by experiences that happen at the outskirts of everyday physical realities, when the material body is sleeping or consuming entertainment. In the gallery space, different dream-bodies and their incarnations communicate together, creating a surreal ritual. The installation-performance merges documented dreams, mysticism and atmospheres from digital entertainment.
Working group: Choreographers: Mikko Niemistö and Sanna Blennow, lighting designer Teo Lanerva, dancer - sound designer Olli Lautiola and fashion designer - performance artist Justus Kantakoski
