Únashay Sanctuary

"Únashay is a non-profit grief sanctuary that offers reachable community care and presence for the grieving, through the arts, land-based offerings and interspecies companionship; all whilst forging a new emergent culture for grief in all its many forms." 

It is a living experiment, born of the disturbance of living in a world that doesn’t know how to be with what is breaking, when everything is breaking. In a culture where presence and support for the grieving is painfully out of reach⎯ we want to explore this abandoned territory by building reachable sanctuary for the grieving, where the gesture we hold is to court rather than “fix” what hurts; to listen, and travel with the Rio Abaja Rio “river beneath the river”. This vibrancy running from below, when not tended, begins to erode and turn into a thousand different arrows upon itself and the ‘other’; and when tended, flowers into a thousand different petals.

We want to tend this deeper river, and build a culture from the flowers rather than the arrows.”
