The duo of Elsy Zavarce and Denise A. Olivares, who were in residence for an independent research project during the 2025–2026 programming year, will present the results of their work at La HALTE in late May.
Teams
Elsy Zavarce
Elsy Zavarce works across media (photography, video, collage and, most recently, the sewing machine), connecting ideas, memories and found objects through intimate gestures of care. Critique and poetics move together in her work, in aesthetics that stay porous and keep evolving. She asks who holds the memory of a place, and how a place holds ours. She lives and works in Griffintown, Montréal, and at times in Maracaibo, Venezuela.
