Go on a journey to rethink the meaning of belonging. The playful light portal URBAN GATE invites people of different cultures to virtually and interactively explore their similarities through the sensuality of movement. Together, two individuals merge into a third virtual composition, using only their body language. Overcome the feeling of separation and feel connected without words to the personality on the other side. The portal shows that the glow in all of us is essentially the same – no matter whether East or West, Young or Old, or from which faraway cultures of this world we come.

Humanity is facing a number of significant challenges. Whether it’s social polarization, climate change, digitalization or war, we need empathy and boundless cohesion to find solutions regarding the acute problems of our time. That’s why we brought the URBAN GATE portals to life.  Providing impulses and a bridge of visual communication, it enables non-verbal communication across transnational borders and strengthens cultural solidarity.
