Traces : Le processus de peine is an interactive, multiplayer VR experience that invites participants to explore grief in all its forms, whether it's the loss of a loved one, a friendship, a home, or a dream.

Guided by Stéphane Crête, ritualist and renowned actor, and inspired by the personal journey of creator Vali Fugulin, this immersive work transports participants into a dreamlike, poetic forest where each step unveils a new facet of grief. Traces encourages embracing, expressing, and integrating grief as a natural part of life.

At the intersection of gameplay and emotion, this virtual reality experience offers a space for deep reflection, connection, and resilience. Over the course of 25 minutes, 2 to 4 participants navigate this sensory universe together in free exploration, where every interaction brings a new perspective on grief and the ways we process it.
