Participatory Performance

A participatory performance exploring everyday gestures of connection, in which the artist wore a dress embedded with rainbow lights triggered by handshakes, hugs, and other interactions. Each activation created moments of surprise and delight, highlighting the joy and energy of human connection—made especially poignant as the project was realized just before the COVID-19 pandemic limited physical interaction.
