about

The Ritual Within is an ongoing artistic, somatic and relational research. It is an inquiry into the soma and the senses, and what it might mean in the current world to find, pursue and share rituals of one’s own.

The basis of this work are five intimate personal rituals - somatic meditations, body and voice practices - which I have developed and practiced over years as a means to ground, center, mend, (re-)connect, relate and attune to myself and my environment. With The Ritual Within I have now set out to share these rituals, and to make them encounterable and perceivable, as well as useable, or even recycable.

Working with the sounds of these practices as the protagonist material - either in sound recordings of my personal practice or the amplified sounds of a live performed ritual - I aim to create simple and easily accessible, yet always immersive formats. At the core of developing each format and manifestation is finding a framing which creates a hosted and cared for space the audience can immerse themselves in, and in which they may make contact and experiences with their own soma and senses. In gentle ways questions about the body, its aliveness, one’s own connection to the environment, on desires, belonging and contribution are asked and a space for connecting, shelter, care and repair is offered.

As an ongoing work, that draws on the five underlying personal rituals, I understand The Ritual Within to have possibly infinite iterations. They appear as sound installation, immersive concert, sound sculpture, one-on-one-encounter, shared group practice, audio guide and many more.
As a first iteration, the sound installation and short-performance „Parts And Places“ was shown at Hellerau - European Center of the Arts on February 18th, 2023
