Constructing Phenomena ~ Artist Lab with Ron Athey & Michele Occelli
Waiting List
This workshop is for artists working in performance and visual arts, interested in experimenting with esoteric and holistic practices as a way to explore new modes of making and being in the world.
We’ll be working with tools of the trade Ron Athey has used for performance-making since 1995, including: somatic therapy, hypnosis sessions, and a program of spiritualist practices such as automatic writing and drawing, non lingual vocals/glossalalia, walking meditation, scrying, and archetype work. We will storyboard concepts for our performances - often, the process is the work!
This format for teaching and making was developed in 2010 for Athey’s Gifts of the Spirit: Automatic Writing in the Great Hall at QMUL and he has been evolving it ever since. This Artist Lab continues Athey’s collaboration with hypnotherapist Michele Occelli. Movement aspects will be co-led by movement practitioner Lewis Walker.
This is not a mortification-of-the-flesh or post-porn workshop but Athey will give short visual lectures containing sexually and physically graphic material. If you have concerns relating to this please reach out to Future Ritual (producing@futureritual.co.uk) in the first instance.Constructing Phenomena ~ Esoteric Performance Development is offered as part of CEREMONY, Future Ritual’s year-long programme exploring performance as a mode of gathering and communing amidst the fragmentation of contemporary life.> about CEREMONY
