22nd of February, South Africa.

Hayley has been exploring the possibility of calling upon the subconscious to relieve both the physical and emotional drought that has been brought upon us through global consumerism, ecological disaster and the alienation of the individual from a collective community and consciousness.

Delving into an examination of ancient collective shamanism and prehistoric rock-painting, in particular that of the San of southern Africa, she explores the questions of communication and collectivism that have separated today’s human beings from their ‘magic’.  

She hopes to learn how we define and manage the opposing experiences of drought and flood, fertility and infertility, wealth and poverty – and gain a new perspective on the modern dichotomy of the search for the self and our tribe or people, and how we can rediscover the potency of our symbols and marks.
