To know you by Hand – Belgium / Ukraine

To Know You by Hand is a participatory VR experience where two visitors meet only through their hands and heartbeats. In a dark virtual space, identity dissolves—no names, no faces, only movement. This silent encounter explores intimacy and trust beyond language. Strangers discover their own rhythm through gesture, uncertainty, and touch, as anonymity becomes a condition for connection rather than a barrier.
