Relational Fieldwork Practitioner
Material, group, and institutional practice for noticing how conditions shape participation, power, and care
laura geiger
I design and facilitate practice spaces that make relational and ethical conditions become visible through participation. The work is experiential and deliberately structured. It does not rely on psychological interpretation or self-improvement frameworks.
You don’t need to understand everything here. The work unfolds through doing, and confusion is often part of the terrain.
Here is where to start:
relational field session
A 90-minute live practice for experiencing how group dynamics take shape without therapy, debate, or performance.
Next session: February 21st

how to read this work
This is not therapy, coaching, or performance training. It does not aim to optimize individuals or resolve personal issues.
Most offerings are live and facilitated. Formats include short labs, multi-week practice spaces, and limited-enrollment programs.
Participation is guided but not scripted. You’re not asked to perform, explain yourself, or arrive at conclusions.
This work tends to resonate with educators, facilitators, artists, therapists, organizers, and others working with complexity, ethics, and relational systems. No specific background is required, only a willingness to participate without knowing exactly what will happen.
