Hands Whisper Quietly

Hands Whisper Quietly

Hands Whisper Quietly is an interdisciplinary performance in two parts by Lawrence Kudria (sensorium studio.lab) and Nitish Bhardwaj.

Perceive is a live dialogue between the performer and the machine. Using machine learning, real-time visuals respond to hand gestures, generating evolving interpretations. By deconstructing and recontextualizing gestures, Perceive questions dominant narratives around identity and expression.

Connect is a participatory VR space where people meet only through their hands and heartbeats. The work creates intimate, silent encounters between strangers, emphasizing presence, trust, and connection beyond identity.
