As part of launch of The London Clown Tarot, Divine Ridiculous presents...
A four hour workshop investigating the collision point between the sublime and the silly.
Clowns and Fools exist in every culture to bring healing laughter and remind us of our own humanity.
Through movement, masquerade, voice, experiment, and play, we will touch the power concealed in our own absurdity.
Facilitated by Daniel Hernandez
"I am an itinerant mischief-maker exploring the ritual roots of performance.
The deeper I have dived into teaching, performing, and living in this rich territory, the more I have seen archaic/ shamanic clown and mask cosmologies become fascinating and colourful routes into individuation: containing a vast treasure-box of rituals, dance, liminal states, grotesque archetypes and clown-lore."
"My performances, projects, ceremonies and workshops draw upon a wide variety of related traditions: These include Dance, Clown, Bouffon, Butoh, Contact Improvisation, Tao/Tantra, Vodou, Mask, Psychomagic, Art, Sacred Sexuality and Breathwork. I am continually researching and developing my practice through trainings, readings, writings, ceremonies, experiments, and mistakes. My first love was music. I don’t claim to be a master of anything."
