The Interspecies Meditation is a guided ritual designed help people develop empathy with non-human life forms through imaginative role-play and deep listening. It provides participants with a fun experience of possible new relations. Originally created as part of Originally created as part of The Treaty of Finsbury Park 2025, a collaborative fiction project about interspecies democracy, this meditation has since traveled the world, evolving with each new place it visits.
Now arriving on the lively coast of Felixstowe, this event offers a moment of reflection, connection, and playful transformation.
🌊🐚 What to Expect:
- A group journey from Hamilton MAS to Felixstowe Beach
- A guided meditation to enter the consciousness of a chosen species
- A sharing circle where we reflect on our embodied experiences
- Thoughtful dialogue on place, ecology, and kinship across species
Whether you're an artist, activist, beach-walker, or just curious, this event offers a powerful, imaginative way to reconnect with your surroundings—and with the lives that share it.
Presented by Hamilton MAS, this event is part of a larger interactive exhibition, From the City to the Coast tracing Furtherfield’s journey from London’s Finsbury Park to Felixstowe’s coast—celebrating art, community, and ecological futures.
