"Watering the Somatic Oasis" is a Web VR project that uses the immediacy of technologies and somatic techniques to “slow” down time. Viewers are invited to put on the VR headset. Through stimulating digital water and bilateral eye movement techniques, this project restores slowness back into our bodies by regulating the nervous system. In the world of AI, internet and instant gratification, we are used to instant access to digital spaces. This "speeding up" of time effects our minds and spirits, causing time and our experiences of it to shorten and increases anxiety and rootlessness. Through "Watering the Somatic Oasis" Web VR project, we take time back for ourselves towards slowing down.
