WAY WILL OPEN

On June 10, 2021 there was an annular eclipse of the sun. A solar eclipse represents not only the energy of the dark new moon, but the energy of a complete cycle concentrated into a few hours. This particular eclipse occurs in a moment of great energy and potential, the beginning of summer, the growing season and in a moment when the human collective seemed to be emerging from a sort of chrysalis created by the global pandemic. The following day, On June 11, 2021, Jessica Rosen performed WAY WILL OPEN, a sonic ritual and seed planting to celebrate this moment and harness the energy of the solar eclipse to open a path for new growth. This ritual was be guided by mantra, sacred instruments, electronic frequencies and a custom electro-acoustic prayer wheel all intended to channel energy into the literal seeds that we will plant during the ceremony and continue to sow moving forward into a new future. Jessica Rosen develops sonic rituals that channel the universal energy to create sacred space and immersive environments for transformation. These are ceremonies that inhabit the intersection of performance, sound art, meditation and spirituality. Each ritual is hyper site-specific as it is tailored not only for the location and cultural context but also intended only for one specific date and celestial configuration.
