Duration
Gaïa (she/they) is a jazz and rnb singer based in Glasgow. Their practice revolves around several collaborative projects within the Neo-jazz scene in Glasgow ranging from rnb to spiritual jazz projects. Their practice has evolved over the past year – now working amongst different scenes and working collaboratively with different musicians, poets, and more.
After a successful pilot micro residency and day event in 2023, Body Remedy returns to Cove Park for a week-long group residency and day event as part of our ongoing partnership. Body Remedy, based in Glasgow, is an organisation that centres physical practice for self-recovery. Contributors and participants of Body Remedy are Black people and people of colour (BPOC) who identify as women and non-binary. They organise as a small team led by founder and former Cove Park resident Mele Broomes in collaboration with Lead Producer Zoë Zo Tumika.
On 28 September 2024, Body Remedy hosted a second forming ecology day event. This was a space for creativity, reflection, connecting with community, and resting. The event included movement workshop led by Mele Broomes and Simone Seales, a painting workshop with Adebusola Ramsay and artist talks with Titilayo Farukuoye, Peju Alatise, and Alberta Whittle, as well as an opportunity to spend time around Cove Park.
