独木舟之倾

荒野真的寂静无声,还是我们只是没有倾听?对于迈尔斯来说,即使是和表亲杰伊和乔西一起去梅尔冈湖这个原始湖泊钓鱼,他的手机也提供了唯一重要的联系。杰伊打趣地不以为然迈尔斯的城市焦虑,乔西则哀叹湖泊昔日的辉煌不再,而迈尔斯却在与日俱增的生态焦虑作斗争,感到与他眼睁睁看着正在消逝的世界格格不入。 当一场突如其来的事故让他们滞留,迫使他们置身于他们一直争论的自然核心时,他们安静的郊游迅速变成了一场生存和理解的考验。抛开干扰,被迫相互依赖,表兄弟姐妹们不仅要面对湖泊的原始力量,还要面对他们自己的偏见和假设。 《独木舟倾覆》是一个感人至深的故事,讲述了如何寻找共同点,尊重自然的尊严,并发现生命中一些最深刻的教训是由荒野低语而出的。非常适合探索家庭、环境管理和联系的真正意义等主题的年轻读者。 杰米·贝尔: 是一位跨学科艺术家、作家,也是共享故事力量的坚定信徒。他常驻马尼托巴省温尼伯市,通过创意项目和参与式研究探索社区与连接。当他不执笔或不使用相机时,你可以在花园里找到他,那是一个他从植物生长的宁静尊严中汲取灵感的地方。

ART BORUPS CORNERS SOCIETY

Art Borups Corners is a non-profit arts incubator based in Melgund Township, Northwestern Ontario. We bring artists, youth, and local residents together through hands-on creative projects, workshops, and storytelling rooted in everyday life in the North. Our focus is on making space for people to try things, share skills, and build confidence through art that grows out of where they live.


We’re also a place for testing ideas and working across different ways of making — from land-based practice to digital work and everything in between. Much of what we do happens through partnerships and shared projects, connecting local creative work with wider conversations while keeping things grounded, practical, and community-led.
