For 3 years Kalina Bertin recorded the voices of her siblings who have bipolar disorder. The audiotapes on which the 2 confide their lyrical hallucinations as well as their painful anxieties became the basis for a virtual reality project. In it, the participants walk through the symbolic rooms in the two siblings’ minds, where galactic nebulae materialise, where they enter a rain forest with flying knives or a dim, compressed cell. Using immersive experience, the project draws attention to the complexity of the world and the fragility of the lives of people for whom their own minds have become both a magical labyrinth and a demonic cave.
