Un-Marriage is a healing art performance to cleanse from past unresolved love memories, inspired by Alejandro Jodorowsky's teachings in Psicomagia, a technique to heal through performative metaphoric actions.
This is a participative performance in which a group of people will write their unsolved love memories on pieces of fabric shaped like tears that will be sewn to a wedding dress which I will be wearing.
After gathering the memories, there will be an un-marriage ceremony in which the dress will be burned and the ashes will be put in balloons with helium that will be liberated as a symbol to let go of those memories and move on.
I have been kindly invited to present this for the first time at Renaissance Village Festival in Yarra Junction at the end of October, and have found a lot of support and excitement for the project.
Participation in the performance will be free for people attending the festival.
