Synopsis
Oei is an immersive VR ritual for 5 participants going on a journey to rediscover the safety and power of expressing emotions through body and touch.
Our society often fears touch, we are disconnected from our bodies. Oei challenges this by inviting participants to reconnect with their primal ability to use the body as a compass. Have you heard of oxytocine? This is a hormone essential for trust and attachment. Physical contact, like hugging or holding hands, boosts its release.
Oei is Inspired by touch-based and body-oriented practices, which use touch for expansion and healing of traumas. In the ritual the audience explores the profound impact of touch, learning to express their emotions and listen to their bodies, ultimately gaining insight into the essential nature of physical contact.
