Sound artist Chloe Owen will create a live improvised piece based on her personal responses to this New Moon time. This will include 3 x 20 minute 'meditations' providing time to meditate if you wish.

The New Moon is when the night’s sky is the darkest as the side illuminated by the sun is hidden from view. To some the New Moon is seen as a time of hope, new beginnings and for the setting of new goals. We invite you to come along and if you’d like, to reflect on your own response to this time.

Soft drinks available but BYOB if you'd like.

This event is part of ‘House of Covvens - South East London’ and the piece created will be played as background to the ‘Covven’ discussions that will happen throughout the week. (More info below)

-

‘House of Covvens - South East London’ is an event series and exhibition that questions the meaning of engagement with politics through the imaginative possibilities of an alternative system based on empathy, cooperation and community. It is an idea conceived by artist Jodie Chinn via influences of the Wiccan tradition, shamanism and the DIY ethos of Riot Grrrl feminism.

From the new to the full moon (15th-29th May), it will create a space for local people to come together, reflect, tell stories and share ideas against the backdrop of the current social climate. It is centred around ten group discussions called ‘Covvens’, which, through their structure aim to create a non-hierarchical, communal exploration of ideas and social issues using both conversation and creativity.

On the new, quarter and full moon, there will be sound performances and foraging walks to connect the space with the local and wider environment. It will be open to visit on both weeks 2-6pm Wednesday-Sunday, 11-3 Saturday and will evolve as people interact with it.
