Together with the ceramic artist Xinyi Hu we would like to invite you to the workshop Inventing Ritual Objects on Friday, July 3rd from 6-9pm at the 25-hours hotel in Zurich.
This workshop invites participants to imagine rituals that do not yet exist. Many of the objects that surround us are linked to habits, gestures, and shared practices. But how does a ritual begin? What kind of object might be needed for a ritual that has never existed before? Can a personal desire, a fleeting need, or an everyday situation become the starting point for a new gesture?
Using clay as a tool for thinking and making, participants are invited to invent a ritual object inspired by something they wish for, miss, or would like to transform in their daily lives. Through a process that combines personal reflection, chance, and collective exchange, these ideas gradually take shape as objects.
