One of the artists that Timo talked to at Keha Festival is Rebecca Evans from Pell Ensemble. They presented their piece Hinterlands, a one-to-one mixed reality headset experience on the speculative futures of human evolution. A dancer and a participant co-create a journey, where virtual layers move over the real world, and connections with yourself, the other and the environment can change.

Inspired by microorganisms called extremophiles that live on the edge of habitability, in some of earth’s most inhospitable environments, Hinterlands is a mixed reality headset experience on the speculative futures of human evolution. Movement, spatial sound and mixed reality create a space that unfolds differently for you and the dancers. Through an invitation to move, you will explore our entanglement with the natural and digital world and possibilities for surviving, evolving and becoming.

In this episode we are taking you a bit back, to the Keha festival 2025 - where Timo talked to Signe Levä, an performing artist and dancer from Finland.

They talked about her work HANDS, an intimate dance of hands, a concert of touch and friction, a wind from one skin to another. A salute, farewell, love and appreciation for her further disabling hands and fingers.

It is a very intimate, touching performance which Signe describes: "In this piece I stimulate the sensorial experiences I practise, to someone else, to another body, as my hands can be on both sides of the person at the same time, providing sensory stimulation; airflow, sound, warmth. Visually arriving at one’s gaze from both sides of the field of vision. The travelling of stimming hands stimulates the senses, as the senses catch the sounds, air flowing, warmth, coming from different directions, at different intensities, drawing a map of where they are."

Take a walk with us through the rooms and hallways of the Cultural centre Valve in Oulu where Kehä Festival was held 14.-18.10.2025.

We talked with some artists who share their experiences and perspective on fellow artists' work. Besides the performances, we had the opportunity to attend the Symposium about One-to-One Art in care communities, where we explored the diverse ways in which one-to-one art has been done in care environments—and what more could be done. We'll talk about that more in the episodes to come, stay tuned!

ILME has been organising Kehä Festival since 2015. In most years, the Kehä Festival has had a theme that challenges us to explore one-to-one art from a certain angle. In 2025, the theme was Travel. The cultural cooperative ILME has been organising Kehä Festival since 2015.
