Being part of this consultation group, with gentle invitations to expeditions of my bodies, my imagines and understand further urgencies of care, needs, resonances, things to express, of the collective, in others, in me. I felt immediate possibilities to apply these findings and ideas to my current practices. The guidance of Poh and her offerings transcend the multilayering of spoken languages, sending invitations, questions.. building creative bridges to see, to be seen, to hear and be heard.
iSaAc Espinoza Hidrobo , Artist / trans activistThe multi-storied body consultation group was a place where curiosity, sharing, dialogue, and co-research were headed in new directions. It was a place where the exploration of the landscape of action opened new possibilities. It was a place where the question of “what is possible to know?” was articulated again from a different perspective and in new directions.
Yiannis Kafkas, Narrative Practitioner, PhotographerMy experience with the multi-storied bodies consultation group can be described as expansive, playful, tender, moving, and novel. Poh offered a generous and hospitable space that was both grounding and uplifting all at once, allowing each of us within an international community to co-research with radical care and unapologetic curiosity. This group became a safe passage to re-appear, re-engage, and re-imagine our relationships with not only members of our physical bodies, but also our bodies of knowledge, spirituality, ancestry, music, movement, poetry, and more. The experience enriched my politics and practices both personally and professionally.

What happens when we shift from viewing our bodies as a single entity to experiencing them as a community of diverse members, each with their own experience, position, and story?
This consultation group is for folx interested in centering post-structural, narrative practices, intersectional feminisms, and community ideas in accompanying individuals, couples, families, and communities in co-research (creative, therapeutic or research). By co-research, we mean unpacking lived experience in non-extractive ways, guided by ethical curiosity.
