Events Description
How do we hold grief in these fractured times? When nation states starve the innocent and empires redraw borders with ruthless intent, when tools meant to connect us end up driving us apart, we turn to artists to offer meaning and remind us of our humanity. Horizons gathers a luminous constellation of award-winning artists who offer us vision, sanctuary, and solidarity.
Curated by Ruby Singh, this event features Vivek Shraya, whose award-winning body of work spans music, literature, visual art, theatre, TV, film, and fashion. Also featuring Kimmortal renowned for their highly conceptual, genre-bending musical explorations and intricate lyricism. Mohanad El Eek, a virtuoso Syrian oud player, adds his exceptional talent to the lineup.
The night will also showcase exclusive one-night-only collaborations: the heart-stirring poetry of Brandon Wint paired with the dynamic composer, trumpeter, bassist, and electronic musician Feven Kidane; and Governor General’s Literary Award winner
Cecily Nicholson in collaboration with the soulful sounds of violinist, singer, and songwriter Sejal Lal.
Together, these artists create a powerful soundscape—part concert, part gathering, part invocation of a future built on connection, care, resistance and difference. This is more than a performance—it’s an invitation to critically imagine new ways of being together in the troubling present.
Just as horizons stretch beyond lines on a map, this night of performance transcends the confines of genre. Through music, poetry, and stories, these artists light a torch in the dark, guiding us toward collective reckoning and shared humanity.
This is more than a performance. It is a gathering — a reminder that even in grief, we can meet at the horizon and imagine something new, together.
