Future Ritual x VSSL Studio
“Since ancient times, ceremony has allowed the processing of potent human experiences such as grief, fear, horror, joy, ecstasy, bewilderment, celebration, love and mystery, through collective acts of ritual. Art, for me, has proved to be a vital space to confront these cavernous expanses and to attempt to meaningfully share my own probings with others.”
In this Artist Lab, Anne Bean will talk about and show aspects of her work, as well as suggest collective actions, as catalysts towards creating our own ceremonies.
Thursday 10th & Friday 11th October, 11am to 6pm, VSSL Studio.
