Series of 4 workshops with artists from our programming, in collaboration with the Sud-Ouest borough.

Poetry inspired by the field of administration. A universe that is miles away from my work as an author and artist.

The descriptions presented are 10 examples of Google searches I conducted. For the Public Writing component, the individuals described have been removed from the context in which they were photographed.

The series consists of short poems, highlighting the interweaving of digital culture with the banality of life.

"Windswept" is an ongoing writing project, which explores a young pioneer woman’s transcendentalist journey into the American West.

I stood in front of the space that contains the yellow luminous board. Questions arose like queries, challenges or games proposals. It looked like the beginning of dialogues.

Bloggers in captivity, guest artists Adam Bergeron (Quebec City) and Karen Elaine Spencer (Montreal) have accepted the challenge of imprisonment and alienation during the three-day event.

Invite people to the launch of the publication « les instructions inhospitalières » following the non-propitiousness of a project due to the disharmony of two networks.
