Egtvedpigen’s Verden
Background
An immersive role-playing experience for the Egtvedpigen Verden
RE-LIVE
There’s a lot that remains unknown about the Egtved girl. People from our past are often reduced to dates, practical facts, and artifacts. Their stories and feelings remain unexplored. To foster empathy for both our ancestors I created an experience that humanizes the past through immersive storytelling and roleplay. Visitors engage with people of the past by portraying them or acting as their translators. Through this performance, they can step into the lives of people from the Egtved Girl’s tribe, opening a space for imagination, and connection.
