Puppeteer and shepherdess, Kristin Fredricksson, teams up with expert on daimonic imagination and altered consciousness, William Rowlandson, to create a truly extraordinary event involving stories, shamanic journeying and sheep.

If you are interested in performance, baking, myth, rural life, ritual or geopolitics, or want to spend an evening using games and processes to get familiar with non-human perspectives (and leave with a gift), join us.

With thanks to Verpėjos residency, Lithuania.
