workshop
SA 23.03 14:00 - 17:00

'The Circle of Grieving Voice(s)' is a collective vocal practice using grief as a pathway to connect with ancestral memories and unresolved stories. Artist Hoda Siahtiri guides participants on a journey to find their grieving voice through vocal exercises and body movements. It is as much a practice of vocal expression as an exercise in listening and tuning in to the collective hum.

'The Circle of Grieving Voice(s)' is a collective act of reconciliation with our emotions, a space to witness, give voice and listen to the chambers of sadness hidden in every one of us. Join the circle if you feel this is a call for you.

This session specifically focuses on the heritage of human/nonhuman and biological/non-biological grandmothers. Details and practicalities about the workshop will be sent to registered participants in the week before the workshop.
