Mvt 2: IS NATURE A PLACE TO GO TO?

LISTEN: Mvt 2 Is Nature a Place to Go to?

Geraldine M Ysselstein

To escape the sounds we make.
Sounds in flight.
Sounds in traffic.
Moving towards.
Sounds of water.

Mvt 1: Is Nature Anywhere?

Mvt 3: Is Nature Who I am?

I acknowledge that I am a guest, settler, immigrant, citizen, and Treaty person who lives and works in Treaty 7 which is on the traditional territories of the Niitsitapi from the Blackfoot Confederacy, including the Siksika, Piikani, and Kainai Nations; Îyârhe Nakoda of the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations; as well as the Dene of the Tsuut’ina Nations. I also acknowledge that this territory is home to the Otipemisiwak Métis Government of the Métis Nation within Alberta District 5 and 6. I live where the Bow and Elbow Rivers meet in Calgary which is known as Moh’kinstsis (elbow) in Blackfoot, Wicispa Oyade (elbow) by the Îethka Nakoda, Guts’ists’i (elbow) by the Tsuut’ina nation, and Otos-kwunee (confluence where the Bow and Elbow Rivers meet at the elbow) by the Métis. Additionally, in Blackfoot, the Bow River is called Makhabn which means “river where the bow reeds grow”, and the Îyârhe Nakoda’s name for the Bow River is Ijathibe Wapta “a place where people made bows out of Saskatoon saplings”.
