‘Wave' - a psychedelic, immersive dance film, in which a dancer's body is manipulated in time through the use of repetition, delay and the repositioning of frames. This creates a choreography in which the history of a movement forms a new kind of organism.

A group choreography performed solo.

Every movement affects the overall shape of the group. The dancer's past transforms into being its direct shadow. 'Wave' will be a film that, due to the use of 360° - 3D, is more than a film that can be viewed from a distance. The use of VR gives an opportunity for the viewer to be an unnoticed observer who is visually in control of time and can act as a director of the movements and choreography. An extra dimension is added through the use of digital manipulation, which can evoke emotions such as e.g. claustrophobia, euphoria or surprise.

About Bart Hess

Crossing boundaries between design, fashion and art, Bart Hess' oeuvre is a series of studies into materiality, (virtual) reality and technology. Hess work is characterised by material experiments, (animation) video and photography with the relationship between man and material, nature and technology at the centre. He is fascinated by the human body and always looking for the tension between attraction and repulsion when exploring the intimate relationship that materials have with our skin.
