Live performance Farah Salem with Ronnie Malley, +Aziz, and Jordan Knecht.
Presenting an experimental performance that reimagines the rhythms of healing musical ceremonies, as participants navigate the wounds of diasporic experiences together. The performance centers on an installation of a reconstructed Tanbura (East African Lyre), a central instrument in healing ceremonies. Along with other reconstructed instruments in the exhibition, soundscapes produced in the performance bring audiences the experience of a nervous system regulating after disruption, mirroring this occurrence in traditional ceremonies in the Arabian Peninsula.
