Drop in with us for an evening of exploring the Air element. We’ll immerse in care, rest, and self reflection at the opening of SUññATA, a solo exhibition by EiY (Emily Peters). With nourishing subtropical herbal teas, grown in EiY’s permaculture food forest, we will remember, honor and thank our relationship with the Earth. Together we will sip some refreshing tisanes and decoctions - made mostly from the aerial parts of plants - and craft our own herbal blends to take home. Then, we invite you to view and move to the soundscape films SO SOFT and HERE. As the films meander through sensations of presence and remembrances of oneness you are free to lounge with the SO SOFT pillow installation, move with the vibrations, or sit in self-reflection, so be sure to wear your comfiest, moveable, relaxing clothes. To close the evening, we’ll share with each other, submerged in soothing ambient music and continue to get to know our native and naturalized south florida plant relatives.
show description
For the months of July & August, EiY (Emily) will be exhibiting a solo show inside the CollaboARTive Gallery in the Intercontinental Hotel in Miami’s downtown Bayshore area. Join us every Monday in the month of July for a sound immersion, somatic exploration and/or meditation within the zero-waste artwork that explores non-duality, the humanity of our interconnectedness, and our placement in this universe.
In SUññATA, EiY (Emily Peters) presents a body of participatory installation works spanning the mediums of sustainable textile, sound, film and performance that engage in subconscious mind repatterning, nervous system re-regulation and self-inquiry. Thanks to CollaboARTive’s Artist Residency, Noche de Arte, EiY’s Earth-centered and zero-waste works can be viewed at Gallery 100 in the Intercontinental Hotel in downtown Miami. Every Monday in July, surrounded by EiY's zero-waste, earth pigment dyed works, we will journey together through experiences that explore the elements - Air, Earth and Water - invite deep rest, through the tools of sound immersion and deep listening, free movement, mark-making with mineral pigments, and sub-tropical herbalism. Drop in with the artist in a cocoon of earth-dyed, hand-formed textile art and earth-magic inspired sounds.
