Join vocal artist Odeya Nini for ODE, an interdisciplinary vocal performance in The CJM's Yud Gallery. Drawing on the sounds of her Yemenite Jewish ancestry and playing off of the unique acoustic properties of the gallery space, Nini will create vocal improvisations in response to the Judaica on view in "Radiant Practices: Illuminating Jewish Traditions." Visitors will experience how song can connect us to our bodies, ancestry, and memories.
About the Performer Odeya Nini is a Los Angeles-based interdisciplinary vocalist, composer, vocal embodiment coach, and sound meditation practitioner. Her solo vocal work extends the dimension and expression of the voice and body, creating a sonic and physical panorama of silence to noise and tenderness to grandeur. She has performed internationally from concert halls to caves and is a member of the Grammy-nominated ensemble Wild Up.
About the Exhibition "Radiant Practices: Illuminating Jewish Traditions" traces the foundational role of light in Jewish life and ritual, both historically and today. Journey through a collection of Jewish ritual objects, from menorahs to memorial candles, that offer insights into practices that draw on light to mark Jewish holidays, lifecycle moments, and spiritual spaces. Presented in The CJM's Stephen and Maribelle Leavitt Yud gallery, the exhibition brings new meaning to the presence of natural light within this symbolically rich gallery while offering new reflections on the forms of light that illuminate Jewish ritual.
