Mourning Machine. (2022-present)

A participatory ritual for grieving in community.
A joyful space to restore the soul.

PROJECT SUMMARY:

Mourning Machine is an ongoing research & performance project about the scientific, personal, political, aesthetic, and ritual aspects of grieving. It is built by a creative community which gathered to study and perform alternatives to the highly commercialized and capitalistic approaches to death, dying, and grieving that we receive in contemporary culture(s). It now manifests as a series of immersive grief-spaces, each created for a specific community in a specific time and place. â€‹â€‹
