'Dear Friend, I Can No Longer Hear Your Voice' at Koffler Centre for the Arts, Toronto.

SIREN was a exhibition by the Toronto-based interdisciplinary artist nichola feldman-kiss, which I was invited to contribute to by screening my film 'Dear Friend, I Can No Longer Hear Your Voice' (made originally for a solo exhibition at the Sir John Soane's Museum London).

The overall exhibition and events were curated by Karen Alexander on concepts of diaspora, migration and displacement, the paradox of national boundaries and borders within an ecology of elemental flows.

Alexander intended that in presenting Dear Friend... alongside eldman-kiss's work SIREN, ideas of on grief, keening, the relationship of the moving image to experimental approaches to sound and voice, especially female experiences of keening and song would become visceral and could be reflected upon.

Dear Friend was presented twice by Alexander for a public event, along with a public discussion with Canadian cultural historian and curator Dr. Michael J. Prokopow responding to the work in March 2023 at the Koffler Centre for the Arts, Toronto, Canada.
