Uyarakq, hailing from Nuuk, Greenland, is a major contemporary force within the Indigenous circumpolar hip-hop and rap scene. With her group Silla and Rise, Charlotte Carleton has been expanding the concept of Inuit music, putting throat singing in a contemporary context. Together at Suoni, these two will present an immersive, collaborative set. This show is happening in conjunction with the CCA’s ‘ᐊᖏᕐᕋᒧᑦ / Ruovttu Guvlui / Towards Home’, an Indigenous-led exhibit exploring how Inuit, Sámi, and other communities across the Arctic are creating self-determined spaces. Montreal-based artist and curator Asinnajaq aka Isabella Weetaluktuk curated addtional programming for the evening.
