One of the many ways the pandemic has changed our world is the return of plants and animals to areas where humans are suddenly less present. Rewilding – a natural rebalancing of ecosystems – was a concept that began its slow creep into my dreamscape early on in the lockdown.

The first feature by editor Catherine Legault, SISTERS: DREAM & VARIATIONS invites us to discover the creative and personal worlds of two distinctive Montreal artists. Tyr and Jasa have Icelandic roots, and they’ve always been artists at heart. Having become a musician and an interdisciplinary artist respectively, they have developed artistic practices that draw on their colourful imaginations and family roots, including the use of audio recordings of their Icelandic great-grandmother.
