wnoondwaamin | we hear them: Opening Saturday, January 14th @ WWG

Co-presented with White Water Gallery, NAISA, and Trinity Square Video.

Join us for the opening reception of this sound art exhibition featuring work by Autumn Chacon, Jeneen Frei Njootli, Melissa General, and Suzanne Morrissette; curated by Lisa Myers.

It will feature a performance at 7pm by Jeneen Frei Njootli – who turns an ear to materials, such as caribou antlers, to sound the transmission of embedded and layered ancestral knowledge.

The performance will be live broadcast on NAISA radio as part of Art’s Birthday celebrations (http://naisa.ca/naisa-radio/), with broadcast host, Cole Forrest Stevens.

“wnoondwaamin | we hear them” calls for the occupation of sound waves, exploring the capacity of these energies to access knowledge and memory.

The exhibition itself will be showing through to the closing reception at the Downtown Gallery Hop: Friday March 3, 7-9:30pm

wnoondwaamin | we hear them is organized and circulated by Trinity Square Video with the support of the Ontario Arts Council.

White Water Gallery is excited to be participating in the tour of this exhibition!

Thank-you and miigwech to John G. Hampton for his work in the development of this exhibition tour, as well as to the project’s mentor Cheryl L’Hirondelle.
