Shrouds are intended for actual personal use with the possibility of a physical group show in the future to showcase our collective work. Following the five week period, once monthly drop-in workshops will be available to continue the creation process together and share our thoughts and progress. You will also get the opportunity to explore your feelings around death and dying through writing exercises and meditations, and, finally, we will begin to design and create our own burial shroud. In this 5-week class, we will learn about historic burial traditions and current burial practices, with an emphasis on shrouds. As modern humans curious about our own mortality, this class will provide space for you to meditate on death while creating your very own burial shroud from the design and materials of your choosing. Shrouding can be religiously proscribed, an ecological symbol, or a deeply personal creation. PLEASE NOTE: All classes will also be recorded and archived for students who cannot make that time, but it is highly recommended you attend the classes live for the richest experience.įrom animal skins lovingly wrapped around early humans to elaborate garments for Incan sacrifices to tender hand-embroidered linen made for a dear grandmother, many cultures and historical times have used a shroud to offer dignity and respect to our beloved dead.
