The Fortune Teller is a series of performances that employ cartomancy and ritual to create moments of encounter and opportunities for conversation around relevant social and political topics.
Using a unique deck of cards, the readings are rooted in life's principle of contradiction and a radical philosophy of affirmation in order to foster the cultivation of more meaningful relations and and nourish one's own capacities for transformative action in the world.

Immersive live performance
October 31st, 2020 - Berlin This immersive performance was rooted in a magic tea ceremony wherein participants discussed current events related to the ongoing pandemic, sharing their own preocupations, fears, and hopes for what was to come. The ceremony culminated with the participants reciting a short incantation which they had collectively written, as it emerged from the discussion that evening. The performance offered a space for shared reflection and moments of real togetherness against the threat of isolation. |
