Eve, dance is an unplaceable place is an immersive performance created by Margherita Bergamo and Compagnie Voix. It combines EVR (embodied virtual reality) with live dance, layers of video projection and audience participation. Early in the project development, I created mood boards to influence the creative direction of the virtual dance films. For the promo materials, I created digital collages to embody the depth, distortion, and dimension of the experience. For the live performance, I created textural video projections that were used to create an abstract visual environment for the dancers.
