Soul Paint exists at the nexus of immersive technology, creative storytelling and wellbeing to explore the richness of the embodied human experience. Participants are taken on a journey to explore and creatively express feelings of emotion and sensations in the body.
Through the process of bodymapping, 3D drawing and movement, they are invited to reveal their unique inner reality and then observe the creations of others. Using interactive technology in a genre-pushing way, this experience encourages new forms of embodied insight, allowing us to reflect on the diversity of human experience on an individual and global level.
Narrated by actor and activist Rosario Dawson, Soul Paint has garnered accolades, including Unity for Humanity and StoryFutures XR Connect Awards and SXSW’s Special Jury Prize.
