EGG TOTEM RELEASE

Two beautiful editions of bronze totems
We are excited to release a limited series of Egg Totems: Egg Totem Life & Egg Totem Death. Both editions are casted in pure and massive bronze. The Egg Totem Life is casted from the size of a chicken egg and the Egg Totem Death from ostrich egg with a whole weight of 13 kilos. Always a special symbol to the Sensuous Society we are happy to make these totems of the sensuous and poetic available to the world.

The Egg Totem Life is released in a limited edition of 40 and the Egg Totem Death is released in a limited edition of 5. Each individual totem is engraved with an individual symbol from Sisters Hope’s unique number-system. The Egg Totem Life is priced at 3.000 dkk and the Egg Totem Death is prized at 19.000 dkk. The Egg Totem Life can be purchased through this link. The Egg Totem Death is solely available through special agreement. Please reach out to us at sistershope@sistershope.dk.

Purchasing an egg totem is also a chance to support the work of Sisters Hope, a continued life for future Poetic Selves and carving paths towards a Sensuous Society.

During the process of acquiring your Egg Totem we will ask you the following questions:

  • In which environment will your Egg Totem live?
  • How is your Egg Totem linked to your Poetic Self?
  • What is your dream for a future Sensuous Society?

The Egg totem will be hand-delivered to you at Sisters Hope Home by special agreement or shipped.

We look very much forward to release the Egg Totems and let them travel out into the world – to new homes.

Egg Totem Life & Egg Totem Death

The Egg Totem Life can be purchased through this link.

Six European partners work together on the central question: How can a sensory approach and an artistic attitude contribute to an education that leads to a more connected and sustainable world? Through artistic interventions and workshops, we want to demonstrate that this approach can and should become the heart of all education.

Adopting a sensuous and artistic attitude is joyous and rewarding for everyone involved. It has a profound and lasting impact on the individual level. Moreover, it is conducive for deep learning and can align with the regular school curriculum.

SenseSquared will demonstrate that this new approach:

  • isn’t difficult to understand and apply,
  • can gradually be integrated into the existing school system and the actual curriculum,
  • has a profound positive impact on children-teachers interaction,
  • deeply and intuitively connects with the humanity of teachers and children,
  • contributes substantially to the intrinsic motivation and joy of learning.

SenseSquared proposes a hands-on approach from the very start, with exercises, contexts, tools and kits that are very easy to pick up, and immediately challenge the existing formats.

SenseSquared is a collaboration between Musica Impulse Centre (BE), Companhia de Música Teatral (PT), Marres, House for Contemporary Culture (NL), Sisters Hope (DK), Stavanger University (NO) and Maastricht University (NL).

Developing the concept of Sensuous Reading in collaboration with Hillerød Bibliotekerne in the project: Sunde læsefællesskaber for udsatte borgere 2022–2023

Sisters Hope have launched a strategic collaboration with The Danish Cultural Institute under the title Sensuous Society – Beyond Economic Rationality. The ambition is to take the Sisters Hope and the project internationally and thereby unfold and explore our performance method and the concept of Sensuous Learning in a variety of different cultures. The project is also an exploration and investigation of common experiences around the world and not at least the planting of seeds for potential new and more sustainable approaches to life in a time where the ground is fertile.

In 2024 the project will manifest as as series of global sensuous walks across continents. In the spring; Beijing, China, in the fall; Sao Paulo, Brazil and in the winter; Goa, India. Beyond 2024 these manifestations will continue to the Baltic Countries, Ukraine and Turkey.

In October 2021 we opened Sisters Hope Home at Hedehusene in the outskirts of Copenhagen. Sisters Hope Home is 5-year-durational artwork and platform for artistic research. For the next 5 years we will manifest this artwork dedicated to poetic and sensuous modes of being and being together. The project originated from a longing for a venue where we could unfold our performative experiments and works in deeper and more refined versions. Sisters Hope Home is also aligned with our current artistic research on how inhabitation of the sensuous and poetic relates to the understanding of the ecological connectedness of everything.

Sisters Hope Home will serve as a platform for our performative manifestations and artistic research within the framework of an on-going performance and a permanent access to The Sensuous Society. The project has been established in collaboration with the Høje-Taastrup Municipality and in addition the foundation, Realdania, has provided the financial support to transform the physical facilities into the distinctive and aesthetic universe of Sisters Hope.
