    Turn Off the Lights, Listen to the River

    What happens when we turn off the lights and listen to what rivers have to say? Drawing on her artistic work with the rivers of the Brazilian Amazon, Gabriela Carneiro da Cunha explores the connections between artistic creation, myth, and ecological crisis.

    In dialogue with Indigenous cosmologies and narratives gathered from riverside communities, she examines ways of listening to the human and more-than-human voices that inhabit these territories. From the Tapajós and Xingu rivers to the spirits of the forest and the waters, her work weaves together historical and mythological time to imagine new alliances in the face of extractive violence and environmental upheaval.
