SUMMARY:My Blood Is My Voice - Workshop Series
DESCRIPTION:MY BLOOD IS MY VOICE\nWORKSHOP SERIES\n7th Jan\, 4th Feb & 3rd March 2024\n  \n\n\nBringing the new year in with community vocal work\, My Blood Is My Voice draws from the neuroqueer experience to facilitate ‘collaborative embodied sounding’ – a type of vocal improvisation which invites deep listening to both the individual body and the collective body as a healing practice. No songs to learn & no such thing as out of tune – this series of workshops focuses on elemental visualisation as a way to find vocal frequencies which can open a deep resonance with the self and others. \n\nThe workshop series is part of a year long residency that is culminating with a live gig-installation at Ugly Duck\, on 10th & 11th April 2024. Check out the tickets via the link above! \nWho For? \nThese workshops would suit folks looking to use their voice in an explorative and improvised way. People with vocal blockages\, disembodied feelings and a longing for being heard in community. Singers who are tired of being stuck in the brain and want to get into the body. You don’t need to be a singer to attend! Much of this work focuses on sounds made with phonetics and the breath. Although this workshop is open to all\, we ask that attendees are mindful of who this space has been opened up for and why. We are a collective of diverse and divergent queer folk seeking to create spaces that we feel safe(r) in. We want our spaces to do this openly. This workshop is queer lead\, consent lead\, and trauma informed on gender identity. Some of our other workshops and events will be closed to create safer environments for community building. If you have any questions\, please ask.\n\nMore about My Blood Is My Voice Project:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy Blood Is My Voice is a ritual gig theatre & vocal healing project in co-creation; exploring the queer & neurodivergent experience through decolonised ways of working with the human body as a complete instrument and storyteller. We look to work in non-hierarchical modes of writing. Devising & composing music collectively & collaboratively through shared lived experience & magical practice. Deconstructing the gender binary of how the human voice should sound. We bear witness to freedom of expression in catharsis. However ugly. However wild. We are here to make space\, give space & take space generously. To surrender and give to our collective power. \nWe create vocal ‘noisescapes’ collectively to explore questions: \nWhat binds and separates our voice to identity? \nWhat permits us to speak to our ancestry? \nWhat does group vocal work bring out in community? \nHow do we identify with transformation\, with stepping into our true collective form? \n\nExplore a multisensory world built around the power of the collective human voice and how its ancestry shapes our connection to life beyond. After a year long in residency at Ugly Duck\, artists Porscha Present\, Tobi Adebajo\, Winter James\, Reyhan Yusuf\, Yuki Nakayama & Harshini J. Karunaratne bring their voices together to explore embodied relational practices through deep listening; exploring queer & neuroqueer futures with improvisation as a way to find the healing power of collective voice.

SUMMARY:Violent Bodies
DESCRIPTION:Violent Bodies\nFemanifesto\nExhibition\, Workshop & Performances\nAs inhabitants of the world\, we are part of an interconnected system.  \nWe influence the people\, places and entities around us in discreet and obvious ways\, and ultimately disrupt each other’s lives. \nThis exhibit will expand this moment of inevitable disruption\, and explore its impact on our bodies and our sense of self. \nThrough VIOLENT BODIES\, we will examine our web of relationships through the lens of a single\, violent\, moment. Here\, we do not use the term ‘violent’ to refer directly to brutality\, physical hurt or pain\, but rather to highlight the intensity of these connections and these shared moments that we often do not want or summon but that happen regardless.  \nVIOLENT BODIES is therefore an investigation on the topic of trust\, both towards other bodies as well as our own.  \nThe exhibition will feature interactive artworks\, workshops\, talks and performances. See the full programme below!\n \nFemanifesto \nFemanifesto is an open-source collective for emerging interdisciplinary artists\, performers and more. As a radical platform\, we host live events and exhibitions exploring vital topics through a feminist lens. \n@_femanifesto_ \nExhibiting Artists\nLauren McNicoll\, Daphne Ting-Yu Chu & Teng Xue\, Kyia Kulczycki Binnall\, Ian Douglass\, Xianyi Zhang\, Bee Nichols\, Olivia Eggleston\, Rosina Godwin\, Julieta Tetelbaum\, Tair Almor.
