Listenings is published in response to and alongside Soundings: An Exhibition in Five Parts, a travelling exhibition that asked: How can a score be a call and tool for decolonization?
Artists responded to this question through commissioned works that ranged from performance and video to sculpture, bead work, sound installation, written instructions and re-presentations of cultural belongings held in museum collections. Unfolding in a sequence of five parts, these “scores” were activated at specific moments by musicians, dancers, performers and members of the public, gradually filling the gallery and surrounding public spaces with sound and action. Curated by Candice Hopkins and Dylan Robinson, Soundings was cumulative, limning an ever-changing community of artists, players, artworks, shared experience and engagement as it travelled from one venue to the next over the course of three years and beyond. Some artworks had multiple parts; others changed to their own rhythm as the exhibition grew.
Listenings features writing and responses to the artists represented in the many iterations of Soundings: Raven Chacon, Sebastian De Line, Camille Georgeson-Usher, Garry Gottfriedson, Maggie Groat, Kite, Germaine Koh, Aaron Leon, Cheryl L’Hirondelle, Tanya Lukin Linklater, Logan MacDonald, Cristóbal Martínez, Chandra Melting Tallow, Peter Morin, Ogimaa Mikana, Diamond Point, Lisa C. Ravensbergen, Taylor Jordan Riner, Heidi Senungetuk, Greg Staats, Olivia Whetung and Tania Willard.
Writing and responses are offered by Xenia Benivolski, Lorna Brown, Whess Harman, Ashley Hynd, Roshanak Kheshti, Vanessa Kwan, Logan MacDonald, Cecily Nicholson, Patrick Nickleson, Beth Piatote, Erin Sutherland and Jordan Wilson.
