This is a multidisciplinary show created with KDV Performance Group and music producer Tayhana, blending sound, visuals, and dance to explore the human brain’s intricate wiring and its connection to the world around us.
Our contribution to the project extends from its initial development phases to the creation, design, and staging of the live visual scenography and content. We envisioned the stage as a platform for hybrid creation, fostering interconnected dynamics across disciplines and individuals.
Originally commissioned by Sónar Festival Barcelona and CTM Berlin, the piece navigates themes of life, death, solitude, and connection—emerging from the grieving process to reflect on existence beyond mortality.
CORTEX is currently on tour and available for bookings.
