Rituals Research

Together with Jeanne Rousselot and Elisa Piazzi, we researched what rituals could be, especially as acts of togetherness, care and transition. The shared experience of inventing and participating in rituals became an occasion to dig into personal inquiries and to explore the process of collective creation. We designed and curated every happening with the experience gained from the previous ones, in this way each of us followed a personal research-thread and at the same time came across the other ones. Starting from a peer-to-peer equal position, such playful research helped us unfolding new understandings and meanings of what actually collective gestures could potentially be and generate.

Most of the rituals that I organized were related to my research-project Primordi: each was providing new outputs and inputs for the other and facilitated their development. More details about this mutual exploration are soon available here.
