Upcoming events

  • Sunday Sound Bath with Annette & Rounik

    MARCH 30th, 11:00 - 12:30

    Come and join Annette and Rounik for a deeply relaxing and reflective Mothering Sunday Daytime Sound Bath in our breath-taking, mystical Bristol venue.

    Sound healing is a wonderfully restorative and relaxing experience, nourishing us on so many levels. It can also be the catalyst for timely change, shifts and further awakening.

    Annette and Rounik weave high vibrations into a heart-felt space using ancient, healing instruments such as chakra singing bowls, gongs, monochords, special chimes, Light Language vocals and other sacred sounds.

  • CRASHOUT

    4th - 6th March, 7.30pm

    CRASHOUT is a new site-specific solo work by Marikiscrycrycry that takes in Impermanence’s new home for dance in Bristol.

    Continuing a legacy of the choreographer’s investigation into dark fantasy, horror, and the choreographic form, CRASHOUT unfolds a tapestry of symbols, aesthetics, and subaltern narratives that directly engage with the ancient iconography of the Ouruoboros (the snake that eats its own tail), the seminal experimental metal album Uroboros by Japanese avant-metal band Dir en Grey, and the interrogation of biographical tension, affect generation, rage and regret.
