Kìzis, Be Grateful To Know Us
“Based in Montreal, Kìzis is an Indigenous, two-spirit artist who challenges conformity with her artistic expressions. Her new album, Turn/Tidibàbide, is as much a collaborative album as it is a family record with around fifty collaborators including the appearance of Beverly Glenn Copeland, Owen Pallett, Cub Sport's Tim Nelson and many more. Kìzis’ experimental knacks and spellbinding grooves produce a flawless synergy with elements of techno, pop, poetry, and Algonquin dance melodies Kìzis dismantles the notion of what it means to be alive today. The energy behind her harmonies is a sign of hope for the future.”
Hiroto Ikeuchi - Fiction as a fact
“From broken motherboards, plastic to electrical wiring intricately moulded together to establish a cyberpunk apocalyptic aesthetic, he amplifies and investigates the connection and relationship between humans and technology. He delves into the world of transhumanism as a spiritual transcendence and the future of humanity in augmented bodies. Not only are his dioramas kicking the cyberpunk genre into even high gear, but they are also made to function. His models raise important questions, albeit fascinating to examine; they also operate and serve as a practical contraption for everyday use.”
