Accessing my sense of sound has been a process of trusting, training, and unlearning. For years, I’ve felt blocked around sound. I trained in Theatre and when I started making performance art, I felt a huge sense of imposter syndrome as most of my peers had come from a Fine Art background.

Consequently, I focused for years on flexing and strengthening my visual and action-based lexicon. I poured all of my energy into the images and kinaesthetic urges that flooded by body. I honed them and nurtured them above all else. 

In the process of creating performances for camera or pieces for video art, if the sound was too tinny or amplified background noise irrelevant to the action, I would just cut the sound and the finished piece would be silent.

My Shamanic work is emboldening and rejuvenating all of my senses. Many agree that as humans we prioritise our sense of sight and quite often the other five senses play supporting roles. When practicing Shamanic Journeying, where you enter Shamanic Realms with your Shamanic self (essentially your spiritual self), I have been conducting some journeys through sound, redirecting my senses to focus on listening.
