Coven

by Courtney Colón

My country ‘tis of thee

Land of inequity

Of thee I sing…

Coven navigates the anger, fear, and belief systems surrounding loss of bodily autonomy and the stripping of women’s rights. Through moments of emotional rawness and intimate vulnerability, Coven questions America as the “Land of the Free.”

Land where my mothers cried

Fought, bled, and sacrificed

For rights which we are now denied

Let freedom ring…

Driven by the radical criminalization of abortion handed down by the Supreme Court, this movement installation seeks to fully immerse audience members inside of a ritual led by witches of the resistance invoking powerful women from the past and looking ahead to a feminist utopia of our own making.

Land of dystopia

Religious myopia

I mourn for thee.*

*To the tune of "My Country 'Tis of Thee."
