Womb Meditation [trio mississauga / kind human club / Laboratory for Artistic Intelligence]

Womb Meditation is an East-meets-West, art-meets-science journey through the uterus, ovaries, and the primordial. Created by Helen Yung, the experience weaves breath, imagery, science, and story.

Womb Meditation engages reproductive science with art and imagination – combining creative and medical knowing through collective practice in community contexts.

Drawing on embodied practices and Chinese metaphysics taught to her by master artists and revered teachers, the experience that the artist offers is at once performance and practice.

Womb Meditation is an invitation to sense, and an act of sensemaking. The work is a delicate blurring of the intimate and the social, of private and public life, of personal and professional labour.
