חיה & 云
Chaya & Yún

Positioning ourselves
coming together
breaking bread
Centring me
Centring you

swapping secrets
crossing lines
Storytelling
transcending boundaries
Reconfiguring
Transgressing

creating a ritual
digesting
feeling at home
feeling full.
Reciprocating
Making Kin.

云: we meld together over
what intrigues us
what delights us
what maddens us
what moves us,
and we forget/revel in what sets us apart

חיה: beyond what i know,
sitting with you, in what you know
reconfiguring the centre to shift far from
Power

Reworlding

We come together, disentangling webs of knowledge that have constructed and misconstrued us. We feel into the specificity of each other's histories, a coalesce of all that has bound us together and apart. We are so separate, yet so bound by our differences, by our meanings, by our connection, by our conversing. We disrupt the centre of aloneness, and in so doing, relegate the architecture of power to the margins.
