Program

Artists from various disciplines come together under one unifying factor: Rituals. Rituals from various practices, both ancient and contemporary, have the potential to ignite inner transformation. The theme of this year’s edition, "Portals of Incarnations," explores how pain can be a doorway to transcendence. Rituals can assist in accepting, healing, and ultimately transforming painful experiences. The program includes, among others, a Sufi dance workshop with Rasha Vrede, a classical piano ritual by Anima Lab , live music from Maya Friedman and Farid Sheek, panel discussions and film screenings, spoken word and sound healing by Sofia Kaloterakis, and ritual art performances by Wormwood Star, Myrgon, Sajjra (Peru), Giek_1 and many others. The festival concludes with a live DJ set by DJ Isis.

Intention

By bringing the theme of transformation, we offer a platform to exchange beliefs and experiences among different communities and cultural backgrounds, promoting harmony and embracing diversity. The festival takes place in an intimate setting, with spaceholders who can support participants in their processes. The festival is accessible to everyone interested in art, music, rituals, contemplation, consciousness, and personal development. The diverse program invites self-reflection, connection, and wonder.
