Description

🌀 Go beyond new age concepts of ‘chakras’ & re-root in ancestral techno-ecologies.

🏝️ When Spanish colonizers first explored premodern Visayas (in what is now known as the “Philippines”), they noted how Bisayan islanders wore sakra, a type of genital jewelry shaped like a ring, or cogwheel with teeth, attached to a pin.

📖 Through presented research & embodied meditation, we will situate SAKRA in Tantra, Hindu & Buddhist concepts of chakra and dharmachakra, contextualizing & decolonizing ancient Visayan sexuality & spirituality across oceans of sacred exchange.

• Video Recording (2 hours) – includes research & embodied inquiry
