About me
Artistic director and acrobatic designer based in Quebec, I create immersive performances with strong visual and emotional impact, at the intersection of contemporary circus, physical theatre, and storytelling.I support the creation of stage productions and large-scale events by overseeing acrobatic design, artistic direction, and overall dramaturgical coherence. My approach is rooted in integrating movement into a unified vision, where each element — performance, scenography, rhythm, and imagery — contributes to a powerful immersive experience.Throughout my career, I have collaborated with multidisciplinary teams on projects presented internationally, developing expertise in:
• acrobatic design
• artistic direction / creative direction
• immersive entertainment
• staging and visual dramaturgy
• artist direction and concept developmentI am particularly interested in innovative projects, hybrid formats, and international collaborations that push the boundaries of live performance.📍 Available for collaborations in artistic direction, acrobatic design, and creative development.Press on the pic to listen to an interview from the podcast "Voix de Cirque" with Alice Kop of "La compagnie des autres".
