Visitors: Singing Plants (Redux)
Subtle Technologies Festival
Co-Presented with Evergreen
Featuring the work of Jo SiMalaya Alcampo

June 3rd–25th, 2017
8am-5pm, Saturdays and Sundays
Weekday viewings by request

Children’s Garden Greenhouse
at Evergreen Brick Works
550 Bayview Avenue, Toronto

"An interactive sound art installation situated in the greenhouse of the Brick Works, Alcampo’s singing plants are potted banana plants that respond to human hand gestures to emit soundscapes of Indigenous chants, songs and spoken words.

The project’s title “Visitors” calls attention to the insertion of these foreign flora into the otherwise completely native gardens of the Brick Works and raises important questions around responsible horticulture, embedded forms of knowledge and the importance of asking the land for permission to access its resources." - from Subtle Technologies website
