MPavilion open until 24 April 2022

Old cultures and agricultural tribes follow time through the basic movement of the earth. The full moon itself is given many names from the harvest—Strawberry Moon, Corn Moon, Harvest Moon, among others.

The ritual of planting fields and reaping harvest within lunar cycles is also closely intertwined with personal ideas of growth. When it is the full moon, it is also time to “harvest” your intentions that were set around the time of the New Moon—a phase in the lunar cycle symbolic of fresh starts.

Join us in marking the next New Moon for a workshop in decorating and planting daisies—as we share our spaces and exchange stories before going home with new flower friends ladened with new intentions.

Borrowing ideas from Astrida Neimanis’ hydrofeminism, our interdependence becomes a way “to create the possibility of allowing our very porous selves to be open to one another” (Neimanis, 2012). To recognise that every aspect of ourselves is dependent on all that is around us challenges the foundations of being human in our current globalised, digitised (and capitalised) world, and opens itself up to new possibilities of how we may “perform humanity” (Singh, Unthinking Mastery 2017).

Everyone is welcome.

This event has been developed as part of the M_Curators, an MPavilion program engaging young makers, doers and programmers. This initiative is made possible by our presenting partner Bloomberg Philanthropies.

We recommend you register to attend this event to avoid disappointment.

In accordance with the rules of our COVIDSafe Plan, we have non-negotiable capacity limits for certain events. If we still have spots free by the time this class begins, we will grant admission to people who have not registered, until we reach our capacity limit.
