The 38th Annual Performance Mix Festival brings together 35 experimental dance and film artists with deeply personal and expansive approaches to art-making. This season’s highlights include Mystic-Informatic, a collaboration between Audrée Juteau, Ellen Furey, N. Zoey Gauld, and Catherine Lavoie-Marcus produced by L’Annexe-A (Quebec). Two large metal structures, a computer from 1983, and small yellow 3D-printed sculptures: in a scenography evoking the ruins of capitalism and the waste produced by the constant renewal of technology, dance grows like an optimistic mushroom, the matsutake. Embodying a punk, apocalyptic and feminist approach, this piece gives power back to dance and expels our ecological despair, film selections in collaboration with Ciné-Corps (France), and resident artists from New Dance Alliance’s Black Artists Space to Create and LiftOff programs. New Dance Alliance (NDA) also brings back the Breakfast Mix, a convivial gathering and discussion with the international artists and presentation by /Koros (Quebec).
