PORTAE festival
The art&magical festival PORTAE
(Moscow, 2022)
(Moscow, 2022)
The festival was timed to neo-pagan sabbath Samhain (also known as Halloween), when the spirits are welcomed into our world. The concept was to open the door for new opportunities, to create a portal into desirable future, and to establish an art&magical community, gathering together artists who work with ezoteric optics and the practitioners of magic.
The festival included online and offline formats. There were online projects such as computer game based on Tibetan book of the dead, first artistic tarot cards “Tarot of Curators”, performative meditation based on medieval Bestiary etc.
Online part also had a chat with poetic instructions of how to build a portal, which turned the whole festival
into an overall ritual.
Offline part was performances, lectures, concert, movement&voice practices and workshops.
