Embodiment Practices Workshop

Part of the BEWILDERNESS programming, this workshop offers short activities to introduce participants to a variety of embodiment practices. The workshop will feature interactive exercises from four different Durham-based embodiment practitioners, including Meg Stein. Participants will also have the option to engage in a self-directed art station with embodiment prompts at any point during the workshop.
In BEWILDERNESS, multidisciplinary artist Meg Stein presents new work that explores the connections between our internal and external ecosystems—our spiritual, emotional, and intellectual landscapes and the physical environment. The exhibition includes freestanding ceramic vessels, wall sculptures, drawings, a large-scale mixed-media installation, and a collaborative series of photographic portraits. These works express the complexity of human experience through vibrant, biomorphic, and geological forms, emphasizing the permeability between our inner selves and the outer world. This body of work marks a shift in Stein’s artistic practice towards uncovering the surprises that arise from an embodied experience of self-discovery. Stein’s inventive forms encourage us to engage with the lush and mysterious wilderness that exists both within and around each of us.
BEWILDERNESS is an exhibition at PORTAL , which is located at 1320 Old Oxford Rd, Suite 7 in Durham.
On site parking is available, though carpooling is encouraged. The venue has an additional roll-up garage door entrance that can be used for wheelchair accessibility as needed.
