"To Re-convene // To Shoreline" by Kim Kitchen

"To Re-convene // To Shoreline" sheds the trappings of modernity, and connects us with the primal and the real, both in ourselves and the land.  - Pegi Eyers

Pegi Eyers was honored to contribute a curatorial essay for Kim Kitchen's astounding exhibition "To Re-convene // To Shoreline."  This large-format photographic narrative encompasses paradigms of body positivity, disability justice, feminine rising, ancestral becoming, ecopsychology, women's mysteries, and creative potential. Published in 2023 the hardcover catalogue celebrates Kim Kitchen's vision, and is a treasure of fine printing, gorgeous photography, sacred words, nature installation and empowering art. "To Re-convene // To Shoreline" is a major addition to the genres of Feminism & Sacred Land and/or Matriarchal Studies.

To meet up, to arrive once again, a convergence of being and becoming. The shoreline is both refuge and passage—one emerges from or enters through. To Re-convene // To Shoreline exposes Kim’s honoring of sacred earth. It offers a reflection in depth, perspective and experience, with appreciation and joy at finding ‘self’ once again in the natural landscape. It navigates ideas of separation—through illness, disability, lack of access, and ideas of return—through creativity, (re)discovery, community. It explores how our bodies can be covered—in safety, in isolation or in hiding; and uncovered—in kinship, ecstasy and determination.

    Pegi Eyers' brilliant artwork sings of
    the power of the feminine soul and
    body.  A song of protection and procreative power. 
    ​ A song of abundance
