Ehren Kee Natay performs Peter Morin’s ‘NDN Love Songs’ – Soundings

On August 7, 2025, 516 ARTS welcomed New Mexico-based multi-media artist Ehren Kee Natay to perform an interpretation of artist Peter Morin‘s NDN Long Songs as part of Soundings: An Exhibition in Five Parts. 

NDN Love Songs presents seven short videos that can be read as ‘drum portraits.’ The drums featured are from the Royal BC Museum, and each represent someone that Peter Morin has loved in his life, and for whom he has not fully been able to express that love. Playing in succession in a line and moving at different speeds, the drum portraits can be interpreted through the written score on the neighboring wall composed by Morin.

This performance was part of the exhibition Soundings: An Exhibition in Five Parts.
