Praise Song for Oceania features artists and works connected by the Pacific Ocean, curated by Métis composer and pianist Jesse Plessis, winner of Soundstreams New Voices Curator Mentorship Program. Music is by composers Leilehua Lanzilotti (Hawaiʻi) and Jesse Plessis (British Columbia), and the program will include evocative readings of poetry by Craig Santos Perez (Guåhan) and Flora Aurima Devatine (Tahiti). The program sets the ocean’s sublime beauty against the devastating violence of colonization, industry, and militarism, underscoring what is at stake in the fight for climate and multispecies justice.
