Where do we find healing in these difficult times? In the Repair workshop by artist and ‘soft radical’ Goldendean, we put ourselves to work. Guided by Goldendean, we create a soft space for hard questions. We let our hands work and our masks fall away. In doing so, we free our bodies from systems that no longer serve us and that we resist. The table in this communal space is richly stocked with a variety of art materials, drinks, snacks, fidget toys and more. The handcrafting is embedded in somatic exercises, agreements around consent and meaningful conversations. In this way, we actively build a world in which we can be both tender and powerful.
Goldendean is present at the festival with two activities! Also join their performance Stay Soft in Hard Times.
