Kith & Kin, A Rewilding of Sound and Form is an immersive and multisensory exhibition where sculptural ceramic instruments, musical compositions, and multimedia installations invite us to connect with the profound beauty of our living world and explore our relationships with the more-than-human beings who are our kin.

Melissa Hyatt Foss is an instrument-maker, musician, composer-performer, and teaching artist who co-creates with an ever-growing collection of instruments that she hand-crafts with clay. Her instruments, which are both visual and sonic objects, both sculptural and functional, recreate and reimagine Pre-Columbian sound artifacts of the Americas through the lens of personal narrative and regional mythology.
