Vancouver-based, Tahltan and Tlingit Musician Edzi’U presents ‘The Moose Are Life’, a visual sound installation that speaks to the disappearance of the moose in Tahltan Territory.

The low numbers of moose in Northern BC have been said to be from a direct result to over hunting in the area, however, the province of BC will not introduce limited entry hunting regulations. Moose counts aren’t showing much of decline, but the fact remains: Tahltan aren’t seeing the same amount of moose. The piece speaks to our colonial inheritance of Indigenous peoples, and the invasive  systems of capitalism, colonialism, and non-resident hunters in Tahltan Territory.

This weekend of immersion in to Edzi’u’s sound and performance world will feature a drop-in sound installation, a live performance, and a guided walk.
