Thank you, Minh Nguyen, for the beautiful write-up on Galéé Sin in @artpracticalsf. Such a tender and meditative use of prose.You can read the full review here:https://www.artpractical.com/review/incantations-for-troubled-land-demian-dineyazhis-galee-sin/“While Galéé Sin unearths dark and troubled histories, it would feel wrong to call this show a polemic. The words, which simultaneously flash from multiple projectors throughout the show, carry at once anguish and calm, a lyricism of ache transforming into song. Hey Jolene ends with the words: “This is how we have emerged from this genderless earth body / to maintain harmony & sanctuary & resistance as ceremony / Hey Jolene / I wish you could have seen that your survival was medicine for the earth.” This sentiment echoes throughout DinéYazhi´’s work, appearing as poetic homages to the violent past, salves for pain, and incantations for the strength for fights to come.”Galéé Sin is on view at Henry Art Gallery in Seattle, WA.Lower Level Galleries.
