Mamana
Mamana (they/them) is an licensed therapist, former film scholar and occasional artist who is interested in exploring the ever present unruliness of the body & the psyche and their potential as places of (neuro-)divergence and de(con)struction of what is supposed to be “normal”.
They like to curate spaces (such as Karada House) and offerings that allow for poking and irritating, researching and playing with one’s own body and psyche as well as those of other willing people and entities in a trauma-aware (and occasionally traumatophilic) way.
