All this is the vessel for Baba Yaga's arrival. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1530027325727-J6R95MSCY7J49AMZSS8B/IMG_1116.png Baba Yaga Performance - Building the BoatNest https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1530026180388-2WM70EJ55DVNRTFK43D2/IMG_0659.jpg Baba Yaga Performance - Queer Baba I discovered through different experiences that Baba Yaga, like their house, is also a shape-shifter, beyond the gender binary. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1530027283304-JHGOQT4UWOWM1DASP3VK/IMG_1159.jpg Baba Yaga Performance - Project Baba Out “Project me out or be devoured by me!” This was a message I received from Baba as a warning and medicine for depression. Baba has been a role model, giving me permission to express a full range of emotions. Here, I’m messing around with a rehearsal video where I'm working on Baba's eyes and expressions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1530031624376-2NY2Y5N69O6B1UM5YUEL/IMG_1222.jpg Baba Yaga Performance - "Ride Your Roar Horse Snake Honored Inside" "Ride Your Roar Horse Snake Honored Inside" This performance was a kind of coming out to the public in my full expression of gender queerness. I’ll often use the mirror effect in my editing of a photo to see and understand on another level what is flowing through or being expressed. Here, a pulling apart reveals the fierce wildness living within. This performance challenged me to truly master the passions capable of being channeled through this body. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1530308465046-975ENDIGHSFGR191VYPJ/IMG_1399.png Baba Yaga Performance - Bird Goddess Creature Bird sounds were prevalent in the performance (along with wolf howling). In my research, I learned that some believe Baba Yaga is connected to the ancient Bird Goddess of Europe. Evidence of this can be seen in her home, which stands on chicken legs. Here is another mirror-image edit. This time, it is of the actual performance with amazing photography by The Furies behind me.

queer feminist. When a crisis erupts at a political event, Ahjo faces the possibility of needing to build a defense of their right to expose their naked female nipples as a means of artistic expression and resistance. In response, they build a boat that is this hybrid book—exploring multiple art forms, selves and bodies as they navigate the stormy waters between the personal and the political.Along the way, Ahjo encounters ancestors, Baba Yaga, spirits of the land, The Crone, The Tree of Life, and a host of other travelers of liminal spaces who have much to say after generations of being silenced.EarthBodyBoat journeys beyond the wounding of binary ways of thinking and gendering that fracture everything into parts, and, instead, offers the gifts of standing in the threshold with it all. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1585259600074-ZYLZ8R3Q8MZNCW58I386/CoverEBB.jpg About the Book https://ahjo.art/earthbodyboat daily 1.0 2020-11-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1586036915862-0C09Z91T5HXELO7C5MOB/CoverEBB.jpg EarthBodyBoat - EarthBodyBoat is the artist’s journal and memoir of Ahjo, a queer feminist.

We enter into a dialogue between our own body and the body of the earth, along with the bigger web of the ancestral body. The somatic practices accompanying the chapters offer the possibility to inquire into one's own somatic field while connecting to the experiences of the author. This brings a deep breath and aliveness to this powerful book. As a somatic movement therapist and expressive arts practitioner, I look forward to introducing my clients to EarthBodyBoat. The Embodied Wisdom held in this book will be of great interest to body-based therapists, somatic researchers, and everyone interested in the inherent healing power of the breathing body and the creative process. —Caroline Kleindienst, MA, Registered Somatic Movement Therapist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1584411057097-VESEYT078Y5CSUA4TP6M/nestWeggs.png Praise and Press I first met Ahjo almost 30 years ago when they showed up at Tamalpa Institute for our yearlong training in the Halprin Life/Art Process. We reconnected when Ahjo came to the California coast and worked extensively with me for six months. It was a homecoming, and the beginning of a very primal transformation. The beach and woods became the medium for wiping the slate clean, reconfiguring and reforming the many puzzle pieces of their life through a somatic-expressive process of engagement with their inner landscape in relationship to the outer one. Ahjo returned to the high desert with an altered inner ecosystem, and generated their own unique form of expression from the processes and maps we had explored together. Now, six years on, I am witness to this stunning amalgamation of memoir/performance/visual diary Ahjo has created. In this wonderful intersection of art, politics and self, Ahjo has come full circle—developing and expanding the Life/Art Process for a new generation of artists and activists. —Jamie McHugh, somatic movement specialist and multidisciplinary artist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1584407195863-2IM8J62PJHXOLIZ74H62/EBBboatINcolor.jpg Praise and Press EarthBodyBoat is not so much a boat as an Ark. I felt my soul fling itself into as soon as I had it in my hands. It is an ark in which to survive the rising (and falling) waters of our time, and Ahjo is an artist/holy person/tit-flashing-crone whose dreams, footsteps, and visions whisper again and again a healing chant, "Our hands are wise. We only have to listen to what is beneath them." Through visionary self-portraits and somatic practices, Ahjo "makes visible through art what has been outcasted and hidden." With their journey as a guide, I created and entered my own earthbodyboat, began my own ritual, and became an apprentice to Ahjo's apprenticeship to body, art, and earth. —Kyce Bello, editor of The Return of the River: Writers, Scholars, and Citizens Speak on Behalf of the Santa Fe River and author of a collection of poems, Refugia https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1584400917948-ZLZ9YZZ7EE3D3GA8Q95B/nestWlegsCol.jpg Praise and Press The body, the land, the river, time. The breath and feelings of the queer and tender heart… EarthBodyBoat is all these and a sneak peek into your favorite time-travelling, virtuoso-performance artist's private journal. As you prance across the landscape where art, body, healing and prayer intersect, never mind the grit n tears! Part body-ritual book of shadows, part dreamscape, part nipple-liberation handbook, read this when you are done done done with your boring corporate job, and ready to admit freely to your stardust nature. You won't feel so alone after. —Dr. Pavini Moray, somatic sex therapist, ancestral healing guide, doctor of Somatic Psychology, and host of Bespoken Bones: Ancestors at the Crossroads of Sex, Magick and Science podcast https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1585259600074-ZYLZ8R3Q8MZNCW58I386/CoverEBB.jpg Praise and Press https://ahjo.art/store daily 0.75 2020-10-21 https://ahjo.art/store/earthbodyboat-digital-download-pdf monthly 0.5 2020-10-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1597978260673-F49V1FQWDNTOMTTAWP1C/CoverEBB.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat digital download pdf https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1597978271768-RM8784ICX47RZTW8DOP0/book+inside+1.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat digital download pdf https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1597978271434-TR9BFMKM5H7HLJ7I0I2B/book+inside+2.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat digital download pdf https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1597978275982-AX90ISQJX78CEZK3UW8O/book+inside+3.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat digital download pdf https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1597978274770-4X0WOTEP02B4Z3DXH4C4/book+inside+4.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat digital download pdf https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1597978276160-0FS0SXIAW5QO5G3BNHPP/book+inside+5.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat digital download pdf https://ahjo.art/store/earthbodyboat-digital-download-epub monthly 0.5 2020-10-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1597978260673-F49V1FQWDNTOMTTAWP1C/CoverEBB.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat digital download ePub https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1597978276160-0FS0SXIAW5QO5G3BNHPP/book+inside+5.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat digital download ePub https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1597978275982-AX90ISQJX78CEZK3UW8O/book+inside+3.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat digital download ePub https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1597978271434-TR9BFMKM5H7HLJ7I0I2B/book+inside+2.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat digital download ePub https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1597978274770-4X0WOTEP02B4Z3DXH4C4/book+inside+4.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat digital download ePub https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1597978271768-RM8784ICX47RZTW8DOP0/book+inside+1.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat digital download ePub https://ahjo.art/store/earthbodyboat-book-n8ntd monthly 0.5 2023-09-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1586036915862-0C09Z91T5HXELO7C5MOB/CoverEBB.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat book - AhjoEarthBodyBoat Book https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1587662907626-KLXL1ZKMFWMGS6G75SPJ/book+inside+3.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat book https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1587662896340-GAXFWYNRZYIU55WVXTGT/book+inside+1.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat book https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1587662913841-AMZWXUN85RKFRZ4YFHX0/book+inside+5.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat book https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1587662912847-5PPHFZ2USK0KMK6NE1H4/book+inside+4.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat book https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b22a82375f9ee40ca5a873b/1587662900223-3X2Q2VBI2V30P90970Q0/book+inside+2.jpg Store - EarthBodyBoat book
