The Nature of Us
The Nature of Us is a devised sound installation and choral performance conceived by Kevin Jesuino, Jean-Louis Bleau and Cassette Bessette. In collaboration with TRAction, ARTIO Choir, and the Mount Royal University Choral Association, the project blended soundscapes, monologues, and choral music to foster a deeper connection with nature. Set in public green spaces, the installation featured a six-channel sound system discreetly integrated into the environment. The 30-minute soundscape guided listeners through a meditative experience as pre-recorded vocal performances from six choir members harmonized with the natural sounds of birds, trees, wind, and other ambient elements.
