the game of shifting mirrors is about x, y and z.
referring to tdls, also the labyrinth of mirrors work, and research about the art of remembering
"In the Dark We See" is an immersive, playful, and sensory team-building experience designed to unlock creativity, deepen collaboration, and ignite human connection. Participants are gently blindfolded and guided into an installation where sight is surrendered, and the inner world awakens.
In the absence of vision, new senses take the lead: the rhythm of breath, the sound of a colleague’s voice, the subtleties of thought and feeling that are usually drowned out by the speed of work and life. Through a series of guided moments—silent, tactile, and reflective—teams explore how awareness shifts when distraction falls away. They emerge from darkness not only seeing differently but understanding one another in a new and profound way.
By stepping outside of their comfort zone and simply allowing themselves to delve into the present, a journey of self-introspection, and consequential awareness of each other awakens.
