Sawah House offers creative care through contemporary art, crafts, and rituals. The softness and stillness in rituals, paired with creative care, will guide you in uncovering the memories held within your body and allow your inner rhythms and stories to find their authentic voice.
Sawah House is a place for community and expression, a place where art and ritual invite care and connection. It offers both individual sessions and collective experiences. Where people gather to share stories, move together, and create shared experiences of belonging.
A place to dive into your roots and explore your identity.
Sawah House
Sawah — meaning ricefield in Bahasa,
spoken softly yet clearly by my grandmother.
A humble bowl of rice,
the endless stretch of ricefields
this is what, to me, feels like home.
House, a home — a place you long for
when roots lay in soil far from here.
Searching for a sense of belonging
in familiar tastes and quiet rituals
a home found somewhere in between.
A house on stilts, an elevated home
where my family once lived,
rising gently above land and water,
held steady by roots deep in the earth,
a quiet oasis between sky and soil.
systemic work and constellations
Systemisch werk, rituelen en creativiteit worden op een natuurlijke en zorgvuldige manier met elkaar verweven. Het hoofd, het hart en het lichaam worden als geheel uitgenodigd, waardoor ruimte ontstaat voor verdieping, betekenis en beweging.
Talen die vloeien in elkaar. De taal die je spreekt en de taal die je vanuit je oorsprong met je meedraagt.
Wasure mizu; Forgotten water, a stream trickeling along unseen.
These words from a tea exhibition at Nezu Museum, evoke the quit, often overlooked currents within us. The subtle, hidden forces that shape our experiences.
Through systemic work we will uncover the hidden dynamics and patterns, opening space for renewed balance and flow.
creative care through contemporary art
and crafts
Art is a powerful way to express yourself authentically. It offers a space where words fall short, allowing emotions, thoughts, and experiences to unfold in ways that are uniquely yours. Through colors, shapes, textures and forms, art becomes a language that speaks directly from within.
When paired with tea and ritual, it deepens your connection to the body, awakening the senses, grounding, soothing or energizing you.
In different ways, we will discover. Like wandering together through a museum, where you can immerse yourself in art, stories, emotions and perspectives captured by others. Finding inspiration that resonates with your own experiences or touches hidden parts of yourself.
Or wandering in nature together, quietly observing and taking it in. Being close to nature teaches you how to ground and return to yourself.
