The Triple D Workshop (Dreaming/Decentralizing/Decolonizing)

Right now the world feels very dark and hopeless. The Triple D comes from a personal need of finding hope, joy, empowerment and a space for dreaming for a better future.

The workshop focuses on the three cornerstones of my artistic practice: dreaming, decentralizing and decolonizing. During the workshop we will be exploring the three Ds through discussion and reading, different physical, mental and spiritual practices, ancestral energies and exercises that shake both the body and the mind.
