Gestare womb retreat

Sat, 11 Jun 2011 22:56:22 +0100

We gathered in Vancouver, BC, Canada for mini-co-creative retreat on Jan. 6, 2011 where Barbara, Nané and Medwyn entered the Gestare wombspace for a day of resonating threads and strings as we deepen into the rich tapestry of art, inquiry, scholarship and activism that is emerging in our matrixial co-encounters. We worked on the co-writing that is moving us towards expression of our work in the language and context of Ettinger's feminist co-relational theorizing, and recorded a group sounding capturing the resonance of our current gestating. The arrangement done by Barbara of the sounding became part of our NAPAR conference art and sound meditation.
