In 2009, she received her bachelor\u2019s in dance with a specialization in choreography from UQAM. She launched her professional career with\u00a0<i>Un jour, mon p\u00e8re m\u2019a dit<\/i>\u00a0(2010), presented as an opening act for Dave Saint-Pierre. Usine C\u2019s 3rd Floor residencies hosted her for\u00a0<i>Note \u00e0 Moi-M\u00eame\u00a0<\/i>(2011). She presented\u00a0<i>Dans le cercle\u00a0<\/i>(2012) and\u00a0<i>Le Guillaume Lambert Show<\/i>\u00a0(2015) at Tangente, and then\u00a0<i>S\u00e9rie Portraits<\/i>\u00a0(<i>Note \u00e0 Moi-M\u00eame, J\u00e9r\u00e9mi Roy est un Homme Libre<\/i>\u00a0and\u00a0<i>Le Guillaume Lambert Show<\/i>) at the OFFTA in 2014. In 2017, Corpuscule Danse commissioned her for the project\u00a0<i>Quadriptyque<\/i>. She is currently working on\u00a0<i>Moins au sujet de moi<\/i>, her most recent portrait of the dance artist and teacher Marc Boivin.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"bg-lightBrown text-black px-24 font-bold h-performanceHeight flex items-center text-20 text-left text-black font-sans font-thin lg:text-20 mx-48pad mb-6 bg-bg-lightBrown text-black px-24 font-bold\">Artistic intent<\/h4>\n<div class=\"text-16 lg:text-20text-20 font-sans font-thin px-24 bg-lightBrown text-black\">\n<p class=\"text-16 lg:text-20 mb-6\">&#8216;Everything began with an email I wrote to Marc Boivin. We had coffee and discussed my portrait project. I offered to begin the process by observing his dance technique classes. I watched approximately 30 of Marc\u2019s classes over the course of a year, for a total of 60 hours. I experienced every moment in class with Marc as a genuinely pleasurable performance. During our first research period in the studio, we talked. It was my opportunity to learn about him, his teaching career, and his path. I asked a lot of questions, and his answers always inspired me. I recorded our conversations, watched him, asked for his opinion, listened. I gradually confirmed that my choreographic lens would consider his teaching practice. We became closer through the research process. Today, the work is a multiplicity of layers, and only a small fraction of them are perceptible to audiences. I still have my observations notes, the theories supporting Marc\u2019s teaching, concepts around learning, terms, audio recordings, conversations, writings, definitions. I am grateful to you, dear audience, for witnessing us at this point in our process.&#8217;<b>\u00a0\u2014 Sarah-\u00c8ve Grant<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;539539&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h1 class=\"bg-lightBrown text-black px-24 font-bold h-performanceHeight flex items-center text-20 text-left text-black font-sans font-thin lg:text-20 mx-48pad mb-6 bg-bg-lightBrown\">Practical Informations<\/h1>\n<div class=\"text-16 lg:text-20 text-20 px-24 bg-lightBrown\">\n<p class=\"text-16 lg:text-20 mb-6\"><u>Dates<br \/>\n<\/u>Oct. 2022, 21 &#8211; 5 pm<br \/>\nOct. 2022, 22 &#8211; 11 am + 8 pm<br \/>\nOct. 2022, 23\u00a0 &#8211; 3 pm<br \/>\nNov. 2022, 18 &#8211; 5 pm<br \/>\nNov. 2022, 19 &#8211; 11 am + 8 pm<br \/>\nNov. 2022, 20 &#8211; 3 pm<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-16 lg:text-20 mb-6\"><u>Get to<br \/>\n<\/u>Studio 303<br \/>\n372 Sainte-Catherine West &#8211; 3rd floor<br \/>\nMontr\u00e9al, QC H3B 1A2<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;173383&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-16 lg:text-20 mb-6\"><u>Box office<br \/>\n<\/u>Danse-Cit\u00e9 :\u00a0(514) 525-3595<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/danse-cite.org\/en\/billeterie\">https:\/\/danse-cite.org\/en\/billetterie<\/a><\/p>\n<p><u>Rates<\/u><br \/>\nRegular : 28 $ | Discounted : 24 $<br \/>\nAccompanying person (for spectators with a disability) : 0 $<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-16 lg:text-20 mb-6\"><u>Accessibility<br \/>\n<\/u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.studio303.ca\/en\/physical-location\/\"><u>https:\/\/www.studio303.ca\/en\/physical-location\/<\/u><\/a><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n<p class=\"text-16 lg:text-20 mb-6\"><u>Duration of the show<br \/>\n<\/u>60 minutes<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_gallery el_id=&#8221;gallery-145870&#8243; medias=&#8221;55309,55310,55311,55312&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; screen_lg=&#8221;1000&#8243; screen_md=&#8221;600&#8243; screen_sm=&#8221;480&#8243; single_overlay_opacity=&#8221;50&#8243; single_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;637067&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;185233&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"bg-darkBrown text-black px-24 font-bold h-performanceHeight flex items-center text-20 text-left text-black font-sans font-thin lg:text-20 mx-48pad mb-6 bg-bg-darkBrown\">Team<\/h4>\n<div class=\"my-masonry-grid pr-24 text-16 text-black lg:text-20 bg-darkBrown\">\n<div class=\"my-masonry-grid_column\">\n<p class=\"text-16 lg:text-20 mb-6\"><b>Sarah-\u00c8ve Grant\u00a0<\/b>\u2014 Choreography<br \/>\n<b>Marc Boivin<\/b>\u00a0\u2014 Performance<br \/>\n<b>Bertil Schulrabe<\/b>\u00a0\u2014 Percussion<br \/>\n<b>Martin Sirois<\/b>\u00a0\u2014 Lighting design<br \/>\n<b>Annik Hamel\u00a0<\/b>\u2014 Rehearsals<br \/>\n<b>Carmen Ruiz\u00a0<\/b>\u2014 Artists support<br \/>\n<b>Cl\u00e9mence Lavigne<\/b>\u00a0\u2014 Production direction<br \/>\n<b>Lee Anholt\u00a0<\/b>\u2014 Technical direction<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-16 lg:text-20 mb-6\">Video \u2014\u00a0<b>Jean Martin<\/b>\u00a0| Soundtrack \u2014\u00a0<b>Bertil Schulrabe\u00a0<\/b>| Voice \u2014\u00a0<b>Marc Boivin<\/b><br \/>\nImages \u2014\u00a0<b>Jean Martin\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"text-16 lg:text-20 mb-6\">Partners and supports for creation \u2014 OFFTA, La Serre Arts Vivants, Circuit-Est centre chor\u00e9graphique, Usine C<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-16 lg:text-20 mb-6\">The creation of this work was made possible thanks to the financial support of:\u00a0<b>Conseil des arts du Canada.<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"text-16 lg:text-20 mb-6\"><b>A presentation Danse-Cit\u00e9<br \/>\nA coproduction Sarah-\u00c8ve Grant &amp; Danse-Cit\u00e9<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When he\u2019s not creating and rehearsing in the studio, dancer Marc Boivin spends a lot of time teaching dance.
