“Grateful for Breath” is a new collaborative work by poet and filmmaker Liz Zetlin and singer songwriter david sereda. It’s a moving response to the pandemic and the themes of Facing It, an exhibition at the Tom Thomson Art Gallery. There are four parts: Walking, Bloom, Kinship, and Choir of Sighs. As we all rode the waves of the pandemic, Zetlin and sereda responded to the work in “Facing It” – the themes of social isolation, the power of kinship, and the ways in which art faces and embraces the unknown – creating an intricate three-way conversation. “Grateful for Breath” features Zetlin and sereda performing together and alone as they explore the meaning of “together” and “alone.”
