Information

What does it feel like to loose control? Are you angry, frustrated, scared or just helpless? How long can you stay in this uncomfortable position? CONTROL NEGATIVE is an exercise in loss. Using VR, the author Monika Masłoń tries to put you in an emotional state where you will start questioning the illusory conviction of being fully in control of your own life. The unreal world of the experience — a negative version of the real world — is a training space where you can better understand yourself and your emotions. The experience gradually moves from physical activity to contemplation.
