The Interactive Light Veil is an evolving installation where light becomes a poetic language.
Currently in research and development, this project explores how technology can respond to human presence, transforming gestures into luminous movements inspired by Indigenous symbols and the natural world.

Designed as a modular and scalable system, the Interactive Light Veil adapts to various environments from intimate indoor spaces to large outdoor settings, creating immersive experiences that can be shaped by the territory, community, or event.

By merging ancestral stories with contemporary innovation, this ongoing research seeks to imagine new ways of honouring Indigenous lands and memory through light, movement, and interaction.

​

Selected for Composite #44, The Interactive Light Veil continues its research into the dialogue between light, movement, and technology.
Presented at this digital-arts showcase organized by Présence Autochtone, Gentilhomme, and MAPP_MTL, the project was featured among emerging works exploring creative innovation in Montréal’s digital arts scene.

This recognition highlights the project’s potential within the field of creative technology and its commitment to bridging Indigenous knowledge with contemporary innovation.

Panache Acrobatique is a project in development exploring the meeting point between acrobatic movement, sculpture, and scenographic innovation.
At once a symbolic structure and a performance apparatus, the Panache draws inspiration from the strength and grace of the deer — a powerful figure in Wendat and Indigenous cosmology.

Currently in research and prototyping, the project investigates how a large-scale kinetic structure can move in dialogue with the performer’s body, transforming physical effort into a visual and emotional experience.
The concept is designed to be modular and adaptable, allowing the Panache to evolve in scale and context, from intimate studio research to stage and outdoor installations.

Through this exploration, Panache Acrobatique seeks to bridge Indigenous symbolism and contemporary acrobatic design embodying resilience, balance, and the dialogue between human and nature.

Ayana and the Whispers of the Ancestors is a multidisciplinary creation in development that combines live performance, interactive scenography, and digital projection.
The project follows Ayana, a young Indigenous girl seeking to reconnect with her ancestral roots, a poetic journey where movement, voice, and light become bridges between generations.

Currently in research and conceptual design, the work explores how technology and human performance can interact to evoke memory, cultural transmission, and healing.
Through this ongoing research, Ayana and the Whispers of the Ancestors aims to create an immersive space where ancestral stories meet contemporary innovation — inviting audiences to reflect on identity, resilience, and reconciliation.
