‘Explorations in non-Western communal healing practices: a Sound & Scent collage’

Featured SCENT MIX:
Rose and Vanilla. Rose is good for the soul and heart spaces, for harmony, peace, love and tranquility. Vanilla is good for revitalizing your energy towards emotional growth as well as pleasure and helps to create an uplifting space and improve concentration. They connect to the heart, throat, sacral and crown chakras. 

-As part of my year-long artist residency at ISSUE Project Room, I have been exploring what a communal (Nigerian) diasporic healing practice looks like, sounds like, smells like and feels like. I will be sharing a sound and scent collage of my inspirations and musings in regards to my exploration in performance art rituals and the five elements of nature.
