Mountains of Poetry Listening Session with Muyassar Kurdi and Jason Evans

Join us on Saturday, July 18 at 4pm for a listening session of Mountains of Poetry, a record by interdisciplinary artist Muyassar Kurdi, released by Bilna’es.

Rooted in voice, electronics, and improvisation, Mountains of Poetry reflects on memory, longing, displacement, and the relationship between body and land, tracing cycles of erosion and renewal. The listening session will be accompanied by projections of oil paintings created as graphic scores alongside the record. Developed in dialogue with the music, these works extend the record’s sonic landscape through image.

Following the listening session, Kurdi will be joined in conversation by filmmaker and curator Jason Evans to reflect on the making of Mountains of Poetry and the connections between sound, image, embodiment, and place within her practice.
