Holy Hiatus
Holy Hiatus: performing ritual, community and place is the second inter-disciplinary conference to take place in west Wales under the title Holy Hiatus. A one-day conference in May 2008 contextualised a series of temporary public art projects located in Cardigan This second symposium will be a two-day event with an interdisciplinary programme, including speakers from visual and performing arts, sociology, cultural geography, religious studies, ritual studies and anthropology. Holy Hiatus refers to the crossing of the threshold between outer and inner consciousness and the conference will explore the vital role that ritual plays in social interaction, stressing the importance of ‘liminal' or in-between spaces, where personal and social identities may be creatively transformed. The event will emphasise lived experience and will combine illustrated talks with performative lectures and workshop opportunities as well as screenings of related films.
