Helen Lee/Momentum Sensorium, Curiosities of Wellness in Bodies of Grief and Joy

Curiosities of Wellness in Bodies of Grief and Joy is a multiyear project led by movement-based artist Helen Lee that redefines the structure and systems of performance. It invites the audience not just to witness but to engage—to sit with their own personal grief and cocreate a portal to joy. Lee writes, “both grief and joy exist in a rich cycle of seasons, each offering their own textures and transformations. Summer is a time to flourish. Fall is an invitation to nourish. Winter is an offering of rest and reflection. Spring fosters the tending of compassion, vulnerability and courage.” For the MCA, Lee and a dynamic group of collaborators including dancers, musicians, and somatic practitioners offer two interactive sessions for audiences curious about how emotions are processed and transformed in the body.
