Ocean Songs

Green College writer in residence Clara Kumagai will host a musical performance by Leah Abramson, a singer and songwriter. Leah’s multidisciplinary show Songs for a Lost Pod explores human relationships with marine mammals in a polluted planet, intertwined with her own family history and generational trauma.

This event will be followed by a reception in the Piano Lounge, Graham House.

Leah Abramson is a songwriter, choral composer, and vocalist from Vancouver, BC. With her MFA in Creative Writing, Leah works in the liminal zone between poetry, lyrics, and music, frequently delving into research-based process and conceptual projects. She is currently interested in approaching writing and composing as a somatic, embodied process.
