Oath of malleability: Simultaneous Performances
Artists: Caroline Boileau, Mimi Haddam, Helena Martin Franco
With the illustrator Julie Delporte
Galerie de l’UQAM
Free admission
The exhibition Le septième pétale d’une tulipe-monstre will be set in motion with two simultaneous performances, by artists Caroline Boileau and Helena Martin Franco, and a continuous poetry reading by Mimi Haddam. Unfolding over time both lengthy and alive, the artists will take on their monstrous forms, between gestation and inhabitation of their borrowed limbs. The public will be invited to live with and among them – elephant woman, frog woman, word woman – the states of hybrid bodies in perpetual weaving.
