*Sacrum & Resurrection is a free/donation-based event, make all donations to Venmo @q8ami
Sacrum & Resurrection is an embodiment workshop focused on improvised movement, sensuality in subtlety, and sacral release to find freedom of expression in the spine, especially in the hips and root. Many faiths and cultures believe that the sacrum is the seat of the soul, the bone of resurrection when the end has come, so let’s open our portals and activate transformation. We will be using scarves as a prop to aid movement and as adornment to tie around the hips, so have a couple of scarves in various sizes to play with.

ARTIST BIO
Aminah Ibrahim is a Black American, Kuwaiti, Indonesian artist, archivist, and creative researcher raised in Kuwait and based in NYC.
Through meditative modes of improvisation and an intimate relationship with ritual garb and adornment, Aminah explores the body as spiritual instrument through somatic movement, sound, and visual documentation. Finding space in flesh, performances and movement explorations are rituals of offering, an embodied contemplation towards freedom and abstraction to build portals for new mythologies, with custom garb and sound scores annotating this body language.
