In this project it’s a representation of complexity and ambiguity and became a swampy field of mud and wildflowers. The project delves into the exploration and frustration over alienation and societal disconnection through immersive design, performance, and scenographic sensescapes. It seeks to navigate abstract circular narratives, allowing props, light, sound, co-creators, and performers to organically guide the way. Framed within a muddy and ambiguous version of reality, the project aims to challenge fixed binaries, embrace ambiguity, and cultivate resonance in a performative space. Drawing from philosophical concepts by Byung-Chul Han, Donna Haraway, and Hartmut Rosa, the project confronts the expulsion of the unknown and the quest for meaningful connections in a fast-paced capitalist world.engAmbiguityCommunityResonanceCareEmbodyingQueeringScenographyCircular narrativesSensescapesMFA Programme in DesignKonstnärligt masterprogram i designMudfieldsText
