Laurence Beaudoin Morin, Alexis Belzile, Sophie Cabot, Catherine Lalonde Massecar, Julie-Isabelle Laurin, Myriam Le Ber, Hugo Nadeau, Anne-Marie Ouellet, Josianne Poirier et Hélène Chartier met in distance for a potluck of micro-actions, writings and performative traces. The recordings of outdoor actions, the narration of past events, synthetic spaces and a collective Yi King experience followed one another in a spontaneous and playful way.

The ACTIONS CIRCLE takes the form of a sharing of the experience of an ongoing process, punctuated by performative diversions, including actions and readings by the artist and the participants. Participants are invited to create short scripts of performative actions to be inserted in the three spaces proposed by the artist.

During her micro-residency at The HALTE last October, Laurence Beaudoin Morin created new workspaces based on the correspondence between textual and graphic works, as sites of possibilities (or impossibilities) where to compose performative actions. The essence of the artist's work consists of collaborative experimentations, according to the methodology of an in situ creation, in order to experience the power of action in these spaces.

The residency has been devoted to the creation of surprising associations, new connections and weaving references among the collection; the creation of utopian sub-spaces and of ways to transform them through an emancipatory, relational and restorative projection.

Laurence then invites the audience to enter these spaces with her, through the elaboration of performative scripts, whether into action or through text. The ACTIONS CIRCLE will allow the audience to experiment with implausible or exaggerated situations, without being limited to them. This form is understood for its ability to open up imaginations that seek to go beyond environmental, historical, political, temporal, meteorological, etc. limitations, while remaining in resonance with them.

Laurence Beaudoin Morin

Laurence Beaudoin Morin's practice focuses on the territory and, by displacing the elements that compose it, seeks to assemble visual poems. Performance, video and painting are the means she uses to tell her, and our, experience of spaces. By this association of gestures it is a question of revealing even of suspending the process of creation in order to structure the time, to attract the glance on the hardly visible. The randomness, the accident, the danger, the catastrophe... the scenes suggest or implement the movement. They evoke the premises, the expectation and the results of a dynamic process that sometimes seems to defy the laws of physics. Laurence holds a Master's degree in Visual Arts from UQAM and a BAC from Concordia. She is the founder of the auto-workshops for performance in the terrain vague and is part of the Performance Art Studies team where she facilitates performance workshops with local and international artists.

She has been a member of DARE DARE for several years and has taken part in various projects including Fabuler l'école and Femmes frictions where she has enjoyed reflecting together on alternative modes of learning and organization.
