Ask, Do, Move, Play!
Image Description:
A white page hand lettered in black calligraphy entitled ‘Intersectional Mysticism Part 1: Body’ and 5 main sections (Ask, Do, Move, Play and Wordsearch), separated by different background colours - orange, greige, green, blue and pink. Simple line drawings (a body, spiral, wavy lines and lips) accompany the words. A wordsearch game in green invites participants to search for the titles of the chapters of the book’s first section: Breath, Energy, Food, Movement, Rest, Sex, Pain and Pleasure. The address of the book’s website intersectionalmysticism.one is visible in the upper right hand of the sheet.
