Dance artist based in Tiohtià :ke/Mooniyang/Montréal, Léonie Bélanger completed a bachelor's degree in contemporary dance at the UQÀM (2021) and has since pursued a career as a performer and creator. She has worked with Caroline Laurin-Beaucage, Catherine Lavoie-Marcus, Danièle Desnoyers/Le Carré des Lombes, Chélanie Beaudin-Quintin and Alejandro Sajgalik, among others. Léonie gravitates towards an expanded practice of the body, which leads her to explore collaborative, interdisciplinary and digital forms of work. In her creative work, she seeks to understand how the body can bridge different realities, both lived and imagined. Since 2021, she has been exploring the notion of the digital body as she pursues research at the intersection of dance, visual art and digital art with interdisciplinary artist Éloi Angers-Roy. She is also presenting : L’Absolu est absurde (2022), Égo et cheval : acte 2 (2023), Corps. Route. Ride. (2023) and ALTERMUNDI (2024), hybrid creations of dance, improvisation and science fiction by the Projet Alterdogs collective, which she co-directs with Claire Pearl.
