For the launch of the new exhibit at NAISA, Joan Sullivan and Robin Servant from Rimouski, Québec introduce their interactive installation Ice Voices. This tactile and sonic artwork de-centers the human by giving voice to the non-human, an invitation to "see" the disappearing ice on the Saint Lawrence River differently: with our bodies and not just our eyes.
Joan Sullivan is a photographer, writer and artivist. Her climate change photographs oscillate between documentary and abstraction. Her current series of experimental photographs, JE SUIS FLEUVE, explores the fleeting nature of the disappearing ice on the Saint Lawrence River as a metaphor of impermanence in a rapidly changing world.
Robin Servant is a sound artist whose installation work and electroacoustic compositions are anchored in territorial soundscapes and the people who inhabit it. Convinced that listening to our sound environment creates empathy with it, he has listened to and documented many soundscapes in the Lower Saint Lawrence region for 20 years.
