Virtual reality installation

Basement Breakout playfully forces a confrontation with a catastrophic but not necessarily unrealistic situation. The staging of this confrontation with the unthinkable and disturbing scenario of being defenceless against the masses of water during a catastrophic downpour, trapped in a basement while the water level rises and rises, is a challenge to explore the balance between disturbance and sensitisation, fear and pleasure. In a virtual reality, this challenge is met and the audience is encouraged to reflect.
