Hag-ia

We, our conversations, and what we create together is the art.

Together we will be exploring our women ancestors through research, storytelling, and making. This is an opportunity to reconnect to our roots and resurface those voices that have been silenced.

Despite a deep history of women’s leadership within the European culture, in recent centuries our matriarch’s voices have been silenced. Together we will embark on a journey of retracing our matrilineal ancestry to relearn their stories. This is a beginning. A remembering. A relearning of the stories they told. We will discover this together through intuitive embodied, technological, and conversational research. And it will culminate with a shared collection of stories discovered over this short period.

Hag-ia will extend beyond the SALA period and culminate in a community public work during SALA 2025.

"This type of art is cutting edge and emerges out of experimental theatre which aligns with Tarsha’s training as an actor and it blends beautifully into the performing work that Tarsha initiated and executed to great success in the Fringe Festival. Tarsha is well experienced, dedicated and responsible and is producing important work " Daniel Connell

Other HAG-IA Finissage. 29 Aug 03:00pm - We have sat together in communication and began to unravel and re-learn our women ancestors’ stories. We did this through a process of deep, listening, archival research and connecting with the materials of our late women ancestors. Now we have organically created a work derived from our conversations, our making together and our own body experience of the revelations that have arisen. Four gatherings have now been had. Together we have shared stories with each other about our women ancestors and begun creating a work of art. See, hear, feel what we have discovered. This is just beginning. This process will now continue, together, and culminate during SALA 2025 You are welcome to join us. https://events.humanitix.com/hag-ia-finissage
