Gentle Ferocities
BRING YOUR PLATE (GATHERINGS)
29 June, Saturday
8.00-10.00 PM
Rehearsal Studio
How are we listening to each other, our environments, our bodies, our creaturely companions, and reconfigured rhythms of time and disembodied sounds from virtual realms? What might we witness and what is animated when we situate ourselves in places that ask for your whole body to listen? How can we allow and trust our senses and instincts to lead us in times of crises, transition, healing, dreaming and transformation?
Come sit and unfold these questions for yourself and others through the sharing of food, storytelling and the crafting of a small handmade effigy/talisman (made from a recipe of organic materials, soil, selected spices, aromatics and flowers).
