Ritual acts / Works

A field of ritual acts, traces and ongoing practices.

A ritual act of dressing up in blue,

everyday,

deep blue,
electric blue,
royal blue, indigo blue

as a means to honour and transmit the healing forces of
the Healers in Blue:
The Medicine Buddha
and the Healing Woman, Mary the Mother of God.

Between lust and repulsion, nourishment and poison, the onion becomes a threshold.

To eat it is to invite contradiction.

The Living to Come Within Us

A participatory ritual space.
A shared act of weaving lives, memories and prayers
into a continuity that reaches beyond us.

We become ancestors through what we weave together.

A series of site-specific ritual acts
working with soil, microbes, plants and touch.

Human and microbial life entangled,
charged with intention,
returned to the ground.

Under a tree adorned with prayer cloths,
hair braided with ribbons and an electric cord,
plugged in.

A meditation on lineage, technology
and what is transformed when the sacred meets the contemporary.

An ongoing composition project
emerging from creation myths, runosong and ritual practice.

Listening across time.
