Sustaining for Us
Sustaining for Us is a sonic storytelling experience and a public artist gathering centering artists—of color, queer, and queer of color—and their visions for sustenance and futurity in collaboration with other-than-humans. The first installment of Sustaining for Us explores musical and artistic visions of sustenance as beings in relationship with other-than-humans and while living within the threats from climate change, white supremacy, and more. The series aims to show how expressions of care expressed through storytelling and art can impact and influence hegemonic ideas of environmental engagement, open possibilities for environmental solutions, and combat ongoing myths within settler colonialism.
