Connecting with Our Landscape: A Community Circling with Táhila Moss

Join Native practitioner Táhila Moss for a time-nonlinear cedar circling in the HRM’s outdoor courtyard—an immersive gathering that honors our connection to the Earth and to one another. Inspired by the cyclical concept of time and the sensory memories embedded in "Smoke in Our Hair", particularly George Morrison’s "Collage × Landscape" made from seasoned wood, this participatory experience invites visitors to engage through movement, sound, and touch.

As Táhila walks in a circle barefoot, she will drop handfuls of needles from our tree relatives in front of her, speaking and singing quietly. Visitors are invited to observe and engage in the experience barefoot, feeling the Earth beneath them and the shared memory the circle holds, an echo of events repeating in cyclical time. Followed by a conversation and Q&A with the artist.

Táhila Moss (also known as Táhila Mintz) is a multidisciplinary Indigenous Yaqui and ancestrally Jewish artist whose practice centers on community engagement. As a Water Protector and Land Guardian, she collaborates with Indigenous communities—especially Indigenous women—around the world to restore ancestral knowledge and foster understanding between communities.
