The choreography uses the power of procession in Montreal’s urban borough of Little Burgundy to amplify its storyline of (re)imagined homescape in the era of mid-pandemic. The procession formed by movement artists from across communities weaves its way through urban corridors, neighbourhoods, green spaces — an uncoiled assemblage of nomadic storytellers anchored in the intimate knowledge of individual and shared experiences in unison. OFFERING imbues movement in stillness within our city and takes refuge in its powerful migratory patterns traced across our urbanscape.

Gluttony(en)

Gluttony is a haunting exploration of the devouring mother archetype, embodied by two twin dancers locked in an eternal cycle of consumption and dependency. Through visceral contemporary movement, the film unravels the tension between nourishment and destruction, love and suffocation. Inspired by the Ouroboros, the choreography unfolds in a labyrinthine setting, where the daughter desperately seeks escape, only to find herself inevitably drawn back. The visual language plays with the abject—orange gelatin evoking amniotic fluid, fractured reflections, and tactile imagery that blurs the boundaries between bodies. It is not just about gluttony; it is about inheritance, identity, and the inescapable hunger for connection.

Questione di DANZA(it)

Nuvem(en)

NUVEM is a screendance piece created using the point cloud technique, exploring the boundaries of form and presence within digital space. Dispersed points are drawn to each other like suspended particles, guided by invisible forces that shape them into ephemeral bodies — cloud-bodies that emerge and dissolve in constant mutation. The work constructs a sensory landscape where movement is not only choreographic, but also magnetic. As if held in suspension by an unseen magnetic field, NUVEM invites the viewer to immerse themselves in this rarefied universe, where the body’s contours are volatile and time unfolds in slow, continuous transformations.
