digital drawing for hold at Prelude Festival, 2020
about hold:
Created by Mei Ann Teo, composed by Orion S. Johnstone, with collaborators You-Shin Chen, Troy Anthony, and Matthias Neckermann
hold is an invitation to contemplative practice in queer resistance to capitalist conditioning of time, via collective gathering and recurring durational space. hold cultivates the body as site of revolution with seeds of intention sown in the morning and the rain of prayers at night.
the structure is simple:
welcome (3 min)
opening “bell”————closing “bell” (20 min)
seed/prayer (7min)
