Entangling<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em> Art, <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em>Activism and <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em>Ritual<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em> is a 9 <\/span><\/span><\/span>+ 1<\/span><\/span><\/span> session online course which invites participants <\/span><\/span><\/span>to try and re-i<\/span><\/span><\/span>n<\/span><\/span><\/span>vent the all too familiar modes and codes of <\/span><\/span><\/span>resistance<\/span><\/span><\/span>, by exploring <\/span><\/span><\/span>the<\/span><\/span><\/span> space in-between art, activism and <\/span><\/span><\/span>ritual<\/span><\/span><\/span>, where the poetic, the pragmatic and the power of intentionality <\/span><\/span><\/span>can create<\/span><\/span><\/span> irresistible moments of rebellion. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

At the Labofii, we consider that there is little difference between art, activism and magik. All three practices see imagination as tool to bend reality. All three know that where we focus our attention governs reality. In the end every political struggle is a battle of the imagination and storytelling, and the magick happens when things cease to be what they are and become what we want them to be.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In this course, we will look at <\/span><\/span>applying creativity and magick to movements, <\/span><\/span>how to always <\/span><\/span>protest<\/span><\/span> and <\/span><\/span>propose<\/span><\/span> in the same gesture, tak<\/span><\/span>ing<\/span><\/span> inspiration from<\/span><\/span> the Zad of Notre-<\/span><\/span>D<\/span><\/span>ame-des-Landes (where the Labofii <\/span><\/span>is<\/span><\/span> based); <\/span><\/span>we will<\/span><\/span> explore <\/span><\/span>contemporary life sciences <\/span><\/span>that are reclaiming animism, <\/span><\/span> delve into the collapse of dualisms <\/span><\/span>and the queering of \u2018nature\u2019<\/span><\/span>, <\/span><\/span> and <\/span><\/span>explore rituals as powerful tools of transformation and care, <\/span><\/span>whilst trying to unlearn <\/span><\/span>the toxic <\/span><\/span>colonial logic <\/span><\/span>that continues to stain our art and activism<\/span><\/span>. <\/span><\/span>B<\/span><\/span>ased on historical and contemporary case studies, somatic practices, games, readings, <\/span><\/span>connection with the living and <\/span><\/span> discussions, <\/span><\/span>Entangling<\/span><\/span><\/em> Art, <\/span><\/span><\/em>Activism and <\/span><\/span><\/em>Ritual, <\/i><\/span><\/span><\/em>will attempt to <\/span><\/span><\/em>hold us<\/span><\/span><\/em> so that we can see that hope, like seeds, begins <\/span><\/span><\/em>in the dark.<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

This course is open to artists, activists, organisers, engineers of the imagination, witches, change makers, shape shifters, or anyone who does not identify with such a label, but knows that the most powerful of places is in the betwixt and between, that special place where everything entangles.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
