This spring, DARE-DARE is offering its community a loan program bringing together a hybrid collection of stories made up of actions and words.
Teams
Amélie Brindamour
My artistic practice takes the form of temporary interventions, participatory performances, Eat Art projects, and photography, and explores a range of issues related to natural and urban environments. Favouring the use of affordable, easily accessible materials such as pine wood, cardboard, paper, and bread, my more recent projects seek to recreate spaces within nature and the city through the design of simple props, in order to challenge our perceptions of pre-established social and spatial systems. My interest in food has led me to develop several participatory performances in public space, involving actions such as baking and sharing bread. A staple food in most societies, bread evokes values of sharing and social justice while fostering conviviality, making it a particularly evocative medium through which to convey ideas. I support artistic and educational initiatives that have a positive impact or help build communities, as well as contexts that encourage collaboration, inclusion, and experimentation.

Gourmet READING GROUP
Reading circle
La généalogie du déracinement : enquête sur l'habitation postcolonialeRead moreThe Gourmet reading group comes with a gastronomic exploration inspired by the book and prepared by artist Érick d’Orion. At each meeting, a little group shares analysis and thoughts on an essay that they had been reading in the month leading to the gathering of the group.
Martine Lauzier
Residency
Audio Strolling InterviewsRead moreLauzier uses the walk to create a context that encourages exchange and brings the interviewed artist to talk about his/her work differently. It is also an excuse to discuss the place where one is and to make bridges between the space and the artistic approach of the artist.
