Storm Song: Tanya Lukin Linklater's Site-Responsive Installation at Remai Modern

Tanya Lukin Linklater's installation, 'Storm song,' will debut at Remai Modern in Saskatoon on 28 August 2026, remaining on view until 3 December 2026. Part of the 'Carried by rivers, held by lands' series, it is situated in the Level 3 Gallery Lounge, which offers a view of kisiskâciwani-sîpiy (South Saskatchewan River). This work integrates sound, textiles, and the concept of rest, drawing from the prairie landscape and Indigenous wisdom. A key element is an audio narrative featuring discussions with Cheryl L'Hirondelle, Joely BigEagle-Kequahtooway, and Yvonne Tiger. Utilizing all-weather canvas, wool blankets, and wooden benches, Lukin Linklater creates 'felt structures' that encourage reflection and highlight Indigenous women's viewpoints on land and culture.
