Exploring Landbeing
Exploring Landbeing is a 3-day series of improvisations in conversation with Leeay Aikawa, Kristi Chen, and Akash Inbakumar's collective exhibition Landbeing. Each day will feature a different trio of improvisers, brought together exceptionally for these performances, responding to the sculptural work and weaving their creative practices together.

Becoming Water by Marcella França
As part of the 8th edition of Montréal Monochrome, multidisciplinary artist Marcella França presents Becoming Water.
Becoming Water is the result of 15 years of research by multidisciplinary artist Marcella Franca, dedicated to the relationship between science and Buddhist philosophy in which she explores the physical-chemical aspects of water, correlating them with issues such as fluidity, impermanence, time and memory.
ONE WOMAN IS VERY BAD by Dani Carter
As part of the 8th edition of Montreal Monochrome, writer Dani Carter presents ONE WOMAN IS VERY BAD.
As a Black queer person, experiencing the present, past, and future as indistinguishable from each other, and the cumulative weight of this chimeric stew—of these parts of time crashing together—is frequently overwhelming. Collective trauma and genetic memory spill out of our pasts and both infect and subtly mutate our presents; likewise, microaggressions threaten to pull us out of the present—perhaps even out of the future, where the possibility of change exists—into an antiquated understanding, or lack thereof, of Blackness.
Unlearning the paradigm of counteraction
Unlearning the paradigm of counteraction is an unsettling performance where the artist test the meaning of words associated to political discourses in relation to the material disposition, reuse and recycling.
