PASAR @ Eternal Night Market

Saturday 4 Feb, 2023. Evening-late
Colour Factory @ 8 Queen’s Yard, London E9 5EN

To celebrate Eastern Margins’ 5th Birthday, Asia-Art-Activism presents PASAR 2.0 (Post-Asian School of Alternative Rites) at the Eternal Night Market with a booth that features queer rabbit god -temporary- tattooing (@yarlipokes), remixed rituals and divination (@witchcraftispolitical , @lululotte, @alikati), original merchandise and mysterious but delicious concoctions celebrating East and Southeast Asian joy and exquisite strangeness on this bewitching evening.

As Saturday 4th February is the first day of Spring in the Lunar Calendar - known as Lìchūn in Chinese, Risshun in Japanese, Ipchun in Korean, and Lập xuân in Vietnamese. I will be offering a composite ritual drawn from East Asian ceremonies that welcome the Spring and bring good fortune. Join me for a potent remix of Sou Khwan, Daruma Kuyō, Niannianyouyu, Kakizome, and Mamemaki!
