Turiya Rising: Silver Cord

Hammer Museum, Los Angeles — April 27, 2025

Presented as part of Alice Coltrane, Monument Eternal, Turiya Rising: Silver Cord honored Coltrane’s legacy as a musical innovator and spiritual leader. Performed on a stage designed by artist GeoVanna Gonzalez, the work drew inspiration from Coltrane’s Sunday services at the Sai Anantam Ashram.

In this performance, Ash Rucker merged movement, sound, and ritual into an immersive experience that invited audiences into a shared space of reflection and release. Her voice and body became conduits for energy, creating a collective act of healing within the galleries.
