Elisa Harkins, Hanako Hoshimi-Caines and Zoë Poluch came together in 2019 to create Radio III / ᎦᏬᏂᏍᎩ ᏦᎢ. The work was born in part from a common interest in minimalism in art and music in relation to counter-colonial processes. Elisa Harkins is a Native American (Cherokee/Muscogee) artist and composer based in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Her work is concerned with translation, language preservation, and Indigenous musicology. Hanako Hoshimi-Caines is an experimental dance artist and curator born and based in Tiohtià:ke/Montréal. Her works play within the expanded fields of choreography and interdisciplinary practice exploring notions of ritual and play, the ontology of the fourth wall and the spirit of error. Zoë Poluch’s artistic practice puts into motion different mediums and takes shape in different rooms. Her relationship with the “contemporary dance” scene is based on a long term and practice-based interest in the politics and poetics of moving and sensing. She is based in Stockholm, Sweden.
