Body Bag is an experimental intervention designed to explore the need for skin-to-skin contact in our lives. "We need four hugs a day for survival, 8 hugs a day for maintenance and 12 hugs a day for growth." This highlights the importance of touch and physical contact for our well-being.

Body Bag takes this concept into consideration by offering a unique and thought-provoking approach to achieving body-to-body contact. By embracing two individuals together in a vacuum sealed bag it creates a space for deep physical connection and intimacy.

This project challenges us to rethink our assumptions about the importance of social interaction and the role of touch in shaping our relationships. As we become increasingly disconnected from one another, interventions like Body Bag offer new possibilities for fostering meaningful connections in our lives.

Ultimately, this project raises important questions about the future of social interaction.
