Facades

Displace Studio is a Mixed Reality Performance Studio

Co-lead by Digital Dance Artist Kerryn Wise & Creative Technologist Ben Neal

with Emma Hughes, Courtenay Johnson, Dan Frazer, Tina Carter, Victor Simao.

Facades is an Immersive Virtual Reality Dance Theatre experience.

Inspired by iconic moments from film, Facades uses the architectural features of windows, mirrors and doors as metaphors for duality, reflection and portals. This surreal ‘VR noir’ presents hauntingly beautiful choreography from unique perspectives, inviting the viewer to look behind the scenes, move beyond the veneer and take a closer look.
