Pics from our third installment of The Collective Womb 🤎
Continuously amazed how performance comes to life through living bodies and magically syncs up with the universe, like when a flock of geese swooped over our cast in the final frame of our show 🥹🦢
I also noticed how there was no down period or sadness after the completion of this work, I am actually left feeling totally nourished and inspired from getting the opportunity to collectively dream a myth that helps to heal our relationship with the earth and the womb🌏🌺
Thank you @earthmatterny and @governorsisland for hosting us and @climateimaginarium for supporting us in so many ways 😇🧚
Many amazing artists involved in this work, including the insanely talented photographer @rk_co_image who captured these images. Especially the squirt on the second slide 💦🥵

Special thanks to the MOUND of living compost that held us while literally embodying the theme of life-death-life 🍃🍂🍃
Just absorbed some delicious waterfall life-force into my being. So many croaking frogs, scuttling crabs, juicy papayas, plump jackfruits, edible flowers, sneaky monkeys, ripe avocados, giant spiders, and abundant borrachudos helping me replenish my ecosexuality. One of my sweetest pleasures is foraging for food and medicine in the rainforest 🌸 🌺 🥑🍍🥭🐚🦥🦀🕷️🪰🐒🐸🥬🌿
Also I got to celebrate my beloved @lior_zippel ‘s birthday in a treehouse. Time to go home and put this creation energy towards directing my new play 💫
Has your soul been overtaken by a nationalistic agenda?
Please join me for a 20 min excerpt of my new performance A Jewish Exorcism at @bricktheater in Williamsburg April 9th and 11th. We will need lots of help wrangling the demons!
Each night has four different amazing and in process projects so seats will fill up quickly. Would love your feedback and support towards the gestation of the final project! Ticket link in bio.
Excited to be collaborating and clowning with: @schul.mmm@mr.starrrman@mymelancholyexistence@amanda_erin_miller@berl_beila
Me in oracle mode @lifeitselfevents giving a reading to the sweetest @jaycherub 🌹 ❤️ please note my lovely vulva necklace
Recent readings included:
Helping a widow acknowledge her need to be held and facilitating her recognition that tenderness is still possible.
Encouraging a man in his 60s to integrate and ground his ayahuasca awakening that the Self is not real.
Unpacking a man’s feeling of being vilified for his sexuality by relating his pain to the unmasking of the predatory paradigm in the world at large (this one was hard!)
Meaningful work is a blessing that helps me feel grounded as the earth is cracking open and rebirthing itself 🌍

My video installation “The Pleasure Matrix”, a stop-motion animation created directly in the ground exploring the erotic and generative energy of the earth-womb 🤎 made in the soils of @live_art_ireland and @artelescreativecenter
This work is inspired by the Sheela-na-gig, ancient depictions of feminine figures displaying exaggerated vulvas which were often carved onto doorways of churches and homes as symbols of protection. Two of the videos also feature an egg getting recycled back into the earth in the act of ritualized abortion ♻️
Thank you to @theneighborhoodbk and @sproutsocietyorg for hosting this group exhibition! Also to @renaneuman for curation and endless support, and @pillow_case_kisser for being such a chill and helpful docent 🧚

Thank you to @theneighborhoodbk for trusting me to provide three 1:1 sessions of Jewish exorcism🤲🏼
The cry of the shofar loosens the grip of our collective demons and calls our souls to the work of repair and liberation. Participants focused on releasing the feeling of being tattered, releasing the urge towards annihilation, and releasing the inability to forgive. Two participants separately saw a vision of golden liquid/golden light pouring into the cracks of a broken spirit. Many known and unknown ancestors were welcomed into the room to help us reweave the myths of our lineage🕸
Looking forward to continued exploration of exorcism as ritual-performance for magical healing🌚
Woo my dad embracing me after my panel discussion at Torah in The Tarot. It’s so healing to be uplifted communally for my magical practices, especially within a Jewish institution and with my support for Palestinian liberation. So many things that were once stigmatized are now taking center stage, which is one of the gifts that come with living through a period of chaotic transformation.

Lovely words from our review in @hyperallergic
“It was also an interesting diversion from the strictly medical narrative of ‘abortion is healthcare,’ instead underscoring that abortion is natural; that abortion is the beginning; that abortion is crucial; and that abortions are not terminations, but simply exchanges of energy between the body and the world.”
