Our Hidden Movements

How aware are we of our bodies and their movements as we emote? We are so conscious of the environment we situate ourselves in, which influences the way we think, move, and live. ‘Our Hidden Movements’ is an explorative design space to realize our inner selves and their interoceptive senses, by masking our existing outward projections. 9 participants from different backgrounds took part in the final exploration, where they spent 15 minutes in the designed space, alone. Analysis of the outcome provides evidence of internal realization as we shift our focus from outside to inside, by moving. This could potentially be adapted as a technique of self-awareness. An extended outcome of the project is a film, combining the ‘hidden movements’ of all participants into a performance art, conveying the explored concept.
