Trance Bath is an installation and performance series that investigates the sauna as a site of sound, transformation, and collective engagement. Combining resonant instruments, voice, and guided practices, the project explores how heat, steam, and vibration shape perception and connection. Through installations, performances, and workshops, participants move with the cyclical rhythm of the sauna ritual. Drawing on hypnosis, queer bathhouse culture, and Finnish traditions, Trance Bath uses sound and ritual to investigate how bodies can synchronise, release tension, and attune to one another.
Listening Session is a collective listening experience that combines guided breathwork with immersive compositions blending chakra frequencies and atmospheric field recordings.
Guided Bathing Meditation is a restorative session combining breathwork, cold plunges, guided visualisation, and reflection. The aim is to help participants sweat out what no longer serves them while exploring the connection between body, mind, and community.
Queer Sauna with Archival Activation and Utopian Dreaming session invites participants to engage with the Pussy Palace archive and their own queer archival material through collective readings, private reflection, cold plunges, and discussions or guided visualisations of queer utopian futures. Participants are encouraged to bring their own materials to help spark conversation, reflection, and collective dreaming — anything from magazines, photographs, articles, and artworks to personal objects.
Singing Sessions with Towel Scores is an immersive performance workshop where participants explore vocal warm-ups, cold plunges, and collaborative singing with harmonisation and improvisation.
