Client: Coalition for Sexual and Bodily Rights in Muslim Societies (CSBR) and RESURJ | Role: Graphic Recording
From October – December 2020, CSBR and RESURJ collaborated to host the Healing Circles, a 5-part workshop series to deepen solidarity, connection and care. As networks, the idea was to create a space for feminists that centred the politics of pleasure, wellbeing and resilience, while collaboratively addressing the deep impacts of personal, systemic and intergenerational traumas that activists face daily in movement building.
The Healing Circles were co-facilitated by Marisa Viana and Rima Athar, along with Aizat Shakieva, Hilal Demir, Niza Solari Oyarzo. Along with illustrating and hand lettering quotes from the circles; I graphic recorded the Opening and Closing circles as a way to capture some shared experiences and reflections on the necessity of work that supports collective care and resilience.
