What winds hear us when we whisper? How do our bodies move the earth? What affects reflect the spirits circulating around us? They Whispered Sacred Words into the Wind is an exploration in photography and spirit in collaboration with my daughters. Yearning for stronger ties with ancestral knowledge, I sought to enlist the wisdom of my progeny in a deeply invested venture into embodied relational experience through play and art. In this project, I position myself as witness, guest, and participant in her children's spontaneous acts of connection with the urban more-than-human worlds they inhabit. We acknowledge the support of the Canada Council for the Arts.
