Soleil D'Azur, Camille Sova Oct 2020

Soleil D'Azur, Camille Sova

The Goose

Ôde à la liberté et à l’espace, « Soleil d’azur » est une invitation à une contemplation profondément active : des haies clôturées jusqu’aux dunes infinies tant désirées, nous suivons le parcours d’un regard poétique qui transforme le paysage au fil de son chemin. Progressivement, l’exploitation humaine de l’espace cède sa place à une nature sauvage : le pin se redresse, l’horizon se dégage et la vérité, lentement, se dévoile. Enfin, le soleil n’est plus brulure mais lumière.

Sea Squad, Liam Geary Baulch

The Goose

The Sea Squad is a band of cheerleaders against climate change. Taking action as a team in formation, they gather momentum, inviting all people to cheer with them, mimicking the infinitely expandable nature of the seas' molecular structure. The work was developed and performed as a bilingual project at Est-Nord-Est in Saint-Jean-Port-Joli, Quebec, Canada, and has since been performed and exhibited internationally. The following poems are some of the chants that Sea Squad use to get a crowd cheering together against climate change.

The Rooster And The Lemon, Luis Mario Guerra, Connie M. Morey Feb 2015

The Rooster And The Lemon, Luis Mario Guerra, Connie M. Morey

The Goose

'The Rooster and the Lemon' is a collaborative work of critical-creative writing and photography between artists-writers Luis Mario Guerra and Connie Michele Morey. The text and image is a part of a larger body of work that emerged from a trip to Havana in December 2013 and is still in the process of unfolding through additional visual forms. The prose and photographs question the im/possibility of stasis and taxonomical containment in an ecological continuum where the processes of death and life and interdependent and imperceptibly entangled.
