A performance artist and man\u0153uvrier<\/em>, Alain-Martin Richard<\/strong> lives and works is Qu\u00e9bec. He has been creating for over 30 years and his work has been presented in North America, Europe, and Asia. He also has a parallel practice as a curator, critic and author. While his productions are often deployed on multiple planes of reality, his latest works are rooted in the local community and always incorporate the some aspects of what he calls the “human landscape”. In all cases, his work questions how the social can unfurl within political, economic, and libidinal relations.<\/p>\n

Hugo Nadeau<\/strong> is a visual, action, new media, and poetry artist who has presented his work in Canada, the United-States, Brazil, Central Europe, Poland, and China. He is the recipient of multiple local, provincial, and national art prizes and awards. His multidisciplinary background and interest in conceptual art lead him to create of a number of perpetual projects. His artworks react to spatial and temporal contexts. He believes in the permeable power of art and a generalized democracy. Nadeau is born in St-Zacharie, Chaudi\u00e8re- Appalaches and works in Montreal.<\/p>\n

Sophie Castonguay<\/strong> creates performative scenarios that stage spectator\u2019s speech. These directed happenings often occur within the context of exhibitions or in public space, where site-specific stories can emerge. By using the narrative form, she seeks to interfere with one\u2019s reception of an artwork or perception of site. Castonguay therefore works at the intersection of the tangible image and the projected one as a means of interrogating the relationships between the visible and the spoken. Her work has been show in a number of Qu\u00e9bec galleries, as well as in Canada and Europe.<\/p>\n

Born in Charlottetown, PEI, Sarah Wendt<\/strong>, is a Montreal-based multidisciplinary artist. Her work often involves choreography, performance, musical scores\/conducting, installation\/sculpture, and is developed as a kinaesthetic response to the contingencies of collaboration. Pascal Dufaux<\/strong>, born in France, is a visual and media artist based in Montreal whose sculptural practice explores the relation between camera, perception, topology, and space. His work has been presented at venues across Canada, Mexico, USA and Europe. The artists have been collaborating since 2015.<\/p>\n
