Enter the EARTHSHRINE: a green, mythical world full of mud and earth, smells and sounds around a dismantled spaceship inhabited by fairy-like creatures.
Fairy-futuristic soils?
The lush touch of earth; the taste, the smell of dirt before it was dirty. Sensing beyond the prophecies of doom (rising seas, exhaustion, extinction), art-bard and modern-day druid Venus Jasper evokes a faerie-futuristic world of fertile soil that nurtures and sustains us.
Mythical spaceships?
In a time somewhen, a spacecraft will once have landed, or is it perhaps preparing to take off elsewhere? Inside the murky and dark underground spaces of MU, this space-vessel forms a mythic nucleus for eco-logical research; the creation of new stories, songs, exchange and contemplation.
How can we re-enchant the earth, re-spirit the soil, invite the sacred back into the land?
Come and see for yourself!
Come to MU for a large-scale show comprised of various works, new and old, bringing together the world of Venus Jasper, and the sacredness of soil. Expect new storytelling, music, exchange and reflection.
Enter the exhibition EARTHSHRINE at MU from 13 May till 26 June, participate in rituals and performances during three special events, or just be present at this proposed rekindling of natural reverence.
