Dialogue
Our Dialogue Series celebrates, uplifts and amplifies the work of First Nations performing artists. It is a series of short interviews and responsive writings by Indigenous audiences and artworkers about work created by Indigenous artists. It addresses the lack of responsible, ethical and critical writing about, by, and for Indigenous art-making processes, collaborations, practices, performances, and more. We are here to make our own archive.

on practice: devynn emory
We met with devynn emory for a discussion around their recent works deadbird, can anybody help me hold this body, and their forthcoming works Cindy Sessions and boiling-rain.
“I want to move away from the sensation of resistance, and move within the sensation of respect of what the work is asking of me. I'll practice surrender with whatever stage it needs to be in.”
