Different From The One Place Time Mood Mindset You Are In Now, part 5 – Time

(2025)

The sixth edition took up a total of five hours out of the 12-hour event on December 12th, 2025: Earth (OKÂWÎMÂW ASKIY – ᐅᑳᐧᒫᐊᐧᐢᑭᕀ).

The five hours appeared in the programming as the last 25 minutes of every hour of the event.

The twelve 25 minute slots featured Laura St. Pierre‘s All Flourishing.

Laura St. Pierre’s speculative practice has engaged The Sower as a primary character for a while now. In her 2022 exhibition, SÈME LA PEAU / SEED THE SKIN, the Sower had begun to integrate her body into the care required for the proliferation of foodstuffs and plant matter, there was a unique tenderness to this vulnerability that was also heavily surveilled. This new work reveals a next level of intimacy and interdependence as The Sower has both found and produced sites for growth between the bodies of others now present in her interpreted world.

All Flourishing becomes the line that carries throughout the 12 hour event because it reflects the relational nature of liveness, but also the spatial proximity required to engage in wellbeing, and how it must be fostered. This extends to thoughts about borders perceived and actual, and the care our species must take up urgently is we are planning to survive.

There is a slowness to the work that becomes the time keeper, the chorus, the return.

Laura St. Pierre is Fransaskoise, and lives on Treaty 6 Territory. Her home incorporates a studio, native plant and food garden, and a refuge for insects, birds and wild creatures. She studied psychology at UBC and visual art at the U of A and Concordia University, where she completed an MFA. She has recently mounted solo exhibitions at the MacKenzie Art Gallery in Regina and the Galerie d’art Louise et Ruben Cohen in Moncton, and is currently part of a traveling exhibition titled Storied Telling: Performativity and Narrative in Photography. Her work has recently been featured in BlackFlash Magazine and the Malahat Review. She works primarily in photo, video and installation, and her current research explores sustainable approaches to image making. She also teaches part time at the University of Saskatchewan and writes about art.
