This Ritual of Dreams
@ F4F
2846 W. 21st St., #3F - 4, Chicago, IL 60623
Opening Sunday, February 5th, from 2PM - 6PM
This Ritual of Dreams will be a place for quiet keeping and tender mending. We will traverse liminal spaces on a cold weekend in Pilsen by accessing the communal cosmos, creating alternative realities and exploratory processing. Centered around a collection of handmade objects from local artists, this exhibition will deconstruct ways we learn and negotiate by creating a small community of people actively pursuing healing, which will transform the way they engage their own communities. The artworks examine small reminders and process-based art practices of overlooked artists. Through a series of writing exercises, herbal magic and communal sharing, we will manifest our own desires and build protection within our community in a manifestation ritual at the end of the evening. We will acknowledge and give gratitude for the witches, healers, artists and travelers before us and draw down their power to enrich our communities.
Featured artists: Danielle Wordelman, Allie Shyer, Molly Berkson, Magritte Nankin, Carolina Proveda, Olive Stefanski, Yani Aviles, and Emily Schulert.

F4F
We affirm,we challenge,we are well fed. F4F is a dual dwelling alt-space. We cultivate a femme community, center blackness, and expand upon an understanding of what a domestic space can be. We are artists, writers, performers, educators and healers. We have deep desires to bridge a gap between a Chicago artist transplant community and those that have been here already. Our house rules are our ideals: we come together in a spirit of abundance and we aspire towards a sharing economy. Respect. Compassion. Empathy. This is purpose-filled work, what happens here is necessary.
Keep doing the work you love, keep holding space for you and others around you, keep the fire lit.
