Prayer is often thought of as an act of communication with or a request for intervention by transcendent or supernatural powers, but it can also be a medium that enables dialogue with the deep psyche and anchors us in the most humane aspects of ourselves. We live in a culture that has, to a large degree, lost its fluency in the languages of prayer and ritual, and where subconscious yearnings for a greater sense of connection with the luminous, numinous, more-than-human world go largely unrecognized. As a performative experiment, the Eco-Performance Lab’s Earthprayer seeks to respond to this sense of spiritual impoverishment and to the feelings of doubt, confusion, and despair that the current socio-political-ecological moment can provoke. For the Lab’s members, Earthprayer is not a grandiose bid to invent a new aesthetics of prayer or give ritual a postmodern makeover, but rather an attempt to clarify our vision, steady our existential stance, summon our collective vitality, and organize our most heartfelt hopes for ourselves and for the world in words, gestures, movement, sound, music, song, and action.
