Marie Lambin-Ganon is a choreographer, dancer and visual artist. Her practice combines dance, photography, sculpture and installation. She collaborated with artist Sara Cwynar to choreograph “Red Film”, which was presented at the Sao Paulo Biennale (2018), at the MoMA and Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal, among others. In October of that year, Lambin-Gagnon self-produced her first full-length work, “White Elephant,” a 60-minute multi-disciplinary dance installation where the entire performance space was covered in bubble wrap.In 2019, she was commissioned by the Toronto Dance Theatre to create a sculptural performance installation titled “Slow Dance,” which earned her a feature in NOW Magazine as one of their “12 Stage Artists to watch in 2019.” The piece was nominated for a Dora Mavor Moore Award for “Outstanding Performance of an Ensemble.” In 2020, I presented “Slow Death”, an installation and performance commissioned by the Art Gallery of Ontario and shown in situ in the institution’s European Masters galleries. The work was also part of the Furies Festival in August 2022. In October 2023, the choreographer was commissioned by The Bentway to create a piece integrated into the large scale installation “Confluence” produced by acclaimed artists duo: Striped Canary. The artist also created a work for Toes for Dance to choreograph a site specific installation for Common Ground Festival.
