Ọkan is the many facets of the heart… The journey of us relating, finding connection… Finding ways to hold ourselves whole, honour the other in their wholeness…
Ọkan explores what and who we are outside of the binaries of definition… Of good, bad, right, wrong… outside of political agendas and manipulation…
Outside of gender and gender roles
Outside of the human experience
In our god-like genius
Ọkan is on tour as of next week and we would love for you to be in the line up of the first people to see it!
