Check out OF THE EARTH; PROPELLING FORWARD as a part of COASTAL CURRENTS ✨
“Of The Earth; Propelling Forward” takes the audience through the seasons as we experience them in Knee's home province, the island of Ktaqmkuk (Newfoundland and Labrador). Though the work is rooted in personal observations and experiences of the natural world, because it was created in Ktaqmkuk which is the traditional territory of the Beothuk and Mi’kmaq, it’s important for Knee to acknowledge the importance of seasonal shifts to these groups who were and are the stewards of the local environment and whose customs and migrations heavily relied on the seasons for much of their history. “Of The Earth; Propelling Forward” draws its inspiration from the ever-changing tapestry of Newfoundland’s seasons: Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall, and delves into a captivating exploration of Newfoundland’s weather.
