CATHARSIS COLLECTIVE

APRIL-AUGUST 2017

WHAT'S COOKIN' RESEARCH RESIDENCY

“The Garden of Grief” is an installation that focuses on the story of two trees who fall in love in a small garden, as one faces the beginning of her life in this new place, and the other faces the end of his garden life. It explores how we fill spaces when we connect with others, how we construct/deconstruct ourselves physically and emotionally when we love, and what happens to that construction when love is lost. This immersive piece is about the endless cycle of gaining and losing what we love throughout our lives as one of the pillars of the human existence.

Flowers and Tea: Or How to Cope with Your Hands Workshop

The focus of this workshop is to explore how we can commemorate and ingrain memory into the creation of something. Participants will create three things within this workshop: tea, a fabric flower, and their own eulogy through movement. It is an exploration of an expression of memory and how we use remembrance to cope and grieve through changes, visually and physically. Participants are encouraged to bring a piece of fabric of their choosing to help create part of the garden, while being part of this workshop.
