Writer/artist/dancer Kathryn Frey will read, and maybe sing, from her work in progress of lyrical poetry about "friendship, love, grief, death, moss and stones" at 4 p.m. Friday at the Shelton Timberland Library, 710 W. Alder St.
The resident of Portland, Oregon, is working on the piece as an artist in residence at Hypatia-in-the-Woods in Shelton.
In Portland, Frey guides one-on-one embodiment sessions, weekly yoga classes, monthly workshops and seasonal retreats.
In a news release, Frey states that her process "is rooted in self-inquiry, expression and transformation. Her work combines performance, video, multimedia installation and group facilitation. Whether decoding the origins of cultural mythologies or creating site-specific dance improvisations, Kathryn is most interested in the spaces where personal narrative meets broader cultural critique."
According to the news release, her 16 years of classical ballet training "provided a rich foundation of exploring how bodies archive experience, while deconstructing her religious upbringing created a pathway for challenging systematic narratives."
Along with Malle Crowder and Alicia Rails, Frey co-founded Peace Tree Collective, an artist collective centered around processing grief through artistic expression, communal experiences and spirituality. To learn more, go to http://www.peracetreecollective.org.
