The Body Speaks
 2022

Through the process of reclaiming her inherited Afro-Caribbean Indigenous storytelling role Myrtle uses her work to uncover stories located in the body. The Black body is often a site of personal, political, and social enactments and can reveal the complexities in re-creation and reclamation efforts. Her (research) creation attends to a process that is guided by trans-temporal collaborators who challenge ideas around relationships to art and productivity, community integration, and authorship.

Her latest gathering The Body Speaks (2022), is a civic engagement project that offered women of colour the opportunity to uncover stories located in the body through interviews, paintings and photovoice. This action research participatory project led to the creation of the Beyond Strong Community- a personal and collective care community that uses arts based methods as a way of accessing joy, ease, and liberation.  

Statement

Artist

Myrtle Henry Sodhi’s multi-modal practices act as an echolocator that invites people to locate themselves, their stories, and pathways for self-recovery. As a “Kwik Kwak” storyteller and researcher she shares stories using visual, auditory, and experiential methods that support liberatory outcomes for Black women leaders and equity deserving folk. She is a new world creator who supports others in their own re-creation efforts. 

Myrtle grounds her practice through rituals of “rememory” where her inherited role as a “Kwik Kwak” storyteller acts as a point where the past is accessed to support re-envisioning for the future. Through this role she supports others with connecting to ancestry, community,  Spirit, the body, and the natural world.

CREATIVE WORKS
2023
Diasporic Storytelling: Honouring our Aunties (Audio).
Sonic Stories. Whitney French. Hush Harbour Press.
This project was part of five sonic stories that were created by local artists. My segment focused on aunties–the unofficial griots who hold our stories and in turn become storied. I interviewed Black women who shared the stories of their aunties. Using these stories I created a sonic collage filled with sounds that bring us back to the feet of our aunties.

2022
Ease as a Practice of Liberation (Video).
Co: Culture Collective,
As part of Co: Culture Collective’s efforts to support wellbeing amongst equity deserving entrepreneurs I was commissioned to create two videos that support wellbeing through practices of non-judgmental observation, curiosity, and play. The videos centered on leaning into ancestral knowledge as well as connecting to nature as practices of liberation that support healing.

2021
Mothers Grounding (Animation)
Hosted by the National Arts Centre of Canada.
Mothers Grounding was commissioned by Nightwood Theatre for the national Transformations project, hosted by the National Arts Centre of Canada. This project is a response to the question posed by Canadian playwright David Yee, who asked: “What would it take to transform our society for the betterment of all?” I created an animation in response to this question that encouraged the return of relationship to ancestry as a way to support transformation and liberation.


EXHIBITIONS
Mar. 2025
The Warp & The Weft, Gales Gallery, Toronto, ON,
Solo Artist
The Warp & The Weft explores the impact of shared storying. The main question centers around: “What happens when stories come together?” The exhibit features large "storythreads" woven and layered with heritage washi paper that explore the pandemic experiences of women and gender diverse people. The storythreads weave together to explore the ways stories come together and apart to speak to the impact of historical and (inter)national narratives on women and gender diverse people in Canada.

Sept. 2023
Beyond the Soil, Toronto City Hall, Toronto, ON, and Nuit Blanche Toronto, ON
Feature Artist, Oddside Arts
An exhibition that explores textiles and patterns as modes of communicating creation stories. This exhibit is inspired by the modes of meaning embedded in quilts that have been used to denote safe houses and infrastructures along the Underground Railroad.

Jun. 2022
The Body Speaks, The Clark Center for the Arts, Toronto, ON
Solo Artist
A Canada Council for the Arts funded multimodal embodied storytelling project that explored themes of voice, storying, and wellbeing of 15 women of colour and gender diverse people using Afro-Caribbean storytelling practices. The stories were shared through an interactive storytelling format that culminated in soundscapes, 15 paintings, and a short animated film.
