“Sihr سِحِرْ”, a performance by Petra Serhal

“Sihr سِحِرْ” is a multi-sensorial performance by Petra Serhal starting on the 31st of October at no/mad utopia gallery.

Get ready to be bewitched with aromatic and medicinal plants, flowers, and natural material through smell, touch, vision and taste, while listening to stories of women’s relation to love, loss, nature and magic. Petra will take you on an experience of ancestral healing, care, magic and witchcraft inspired by healing tools from her grandmothers and witches she met during her exploration.

This performance is a gesture of care amid normalized global violence, where both lands and bodies are in a state of precarity. It is part of the series Gesture of Care that explores care as a method of research, creation and sharing.
