Vessel Goddess: Origins
(La Diosa del Cántaro: Origen)

“At the beginning there was the cell. Tiny and vast, it
held within itself the substance of the Goddess.”
Corazon Tierra |
In the “Vessel Goddess: Origin”
performer, poet, bailaora and shaman Corazon Tierra connects to the
ancestral memory of the Goddess and creates a dance-poetry ceremony to
awaken inner peace in the audience. This performance is a short magical
piece that moves the energy lines in the environment, connecting you to the
primal goddess in your cells.
Two modern day artist-shamans collaborate in this piece to offer audiences a
powerful ceremony of transformation, relaxation and re-connection with the
Goddess. Here is how it works:
1. Before the encounter, veteran artist and shaman Maria Mar creates
a live art installation on Corazon. Ancient Goddess signs are painted in the
performer’s body as a ceremony to summon the energy of the Goddess.
Meanwhile, the members of the audience are invited to place their petitions
in a vessel placed on the space.
2. Corazon Tierra arrives at unexpected spaces---a café, a garden, a
gallery---with her body covered in symbols that have transformed her in an
ancient, magical vessel bearing the gifts from the Goddess. As she dances,
she moves the energy in the space, pouring the primal Goddess energy into
the audiences and taking their petitions into the cosmos with her dance,
voice and poetry.
3. Corazon then moves with the energies of all the audience’s petitions,
taking the audience on a remembrance journey: “The essence of everything you
desire, of everything that is happening to you, is within you, in your
sacred body.”
“The Vessel Goddess: Origins” is the
first dance-poetry ceremony of the “Vessel Goddess
Series.” In this series, Corazon summons four aspects of the
Goddess. These ceremonies will take place in unexpected spaces throughout
New York City for the next nine months, as the Goddess is birthed back into
our consciousness.
