SUMMARY:Long’s Hill: I live(d) here (NAC)
DESCRIPTION:“Long’s Hill: I live(d) Here.” is a neighbourhood walking tour by Louise Moyes Docudance\, told through those who live and have lived in the Long’s Hill area\, in historic downtown St. John’s Newfoundland. In 2016\, crisis struck. The Neighbourhood was divided as to what to do. Through dance\, photographs\, interviews and stories\, Long’s Hill Walk reveals our hopes and fears\, homes and businesses\, our public spaces – and where they intersect. This work brings us face-to-face with the issues that shape a community and how dance\, and the act of walking\, can express the resilient nature of its people. \nThe performance features neighbourhood artists\, Inuk throat singer and drummer Sophie Angnatok and African/Canadian singer/songwriter Winnie Churchill. \nThis is one of two live streams taking place as part of partnership between Neighbourhood Dance Works (NDW) and NAC Dance through #DanceForth. #DanceForth is the new NAC Dance livestream project. Most Thursday evenings\, live performances will be presented by a variety of wonderful Canadian dance artists\, both from the NAC Fourth Stage and from various centres across the country. \nChoreographers and dancers with a terrific range of styles will be sharing with you directly through this series that embraces a new model to celebrate this rich and dynamic art form. Please tune in with us to discover the breadth and talent of Canada’s outstanding dance milieu. \nThis performance will be live streamed from the historic LSPU hall on November 19 at 7pm NT (3:30pm MT). \nLearn more.

SUMMARY:‘the prime of my life’ (Mile Zero Dance)
DESCRIPTION:This work explores the relationship between live performance and live-streamed performance – a  multidisciplinary installation with three live performances\, with each one building off the last. \nAll shows are free and can be watched from the sidewalk in front of MZD (10816–95 ST | Edmonton\, AB) or lived streamed below on: \n\nNovember 8 – 6PM MDT\nNovember 15 – 6 PM MDT\nNovember 22 – 6PM MDT\n\nAbout the Artist\nHannah Quimper-Swiderski (she/they) is an artist from Edmonton-Amiskwaciwâskahikan\, Alberta. Working primarily with video\, performance and photography\, Hannah’s work explore concepts of gender performativity\, identity and the body as a contextually loaded form. She often performs as characters\, exploring her own identity through personas and visual identities found within b-movies\, late night television\, and advertising. \nHannah has shown work in venues such as the Edmonton International Film Festival\, the Art Gallery of Alberta\, Latitude 53\, and Mile Zero Dance. She also has a background in theatre\, having been raised in the community theatre scene in rural Alberta and trained at the Foote Theatre School in Edmonton and Second City in Toronto. Hannah previously went to film school with the intention of working as a cinematographer before completing her BFA at the University of Alberta in 2019. \nArtist Statement\nWithin my practice I explore concepts of gender performativity\, identity and the body as a contextually loaded form. Within my video\, photo and performance work\, I often perform as characters\, exploring my own identity through personas and visual identities found within b-movies\, late night television\, and advertising. These range from the otherworldly (magicians\, clowns) to the archetypal (cowgirls\, news anchors\, movie stars). I am drawn to the behind-the-scenes\, often referencing the film set itself\, focusing on the constructed nature of the characters and their worlds. Through this re-presentation of reality\, I aim to reveal the uncanny within the real. \nLately\, my work has become more personal\, reflecting my own experiences growing up as a queer person in small-town Alberta. Through combinations of live performance and video\, I am exploring my complicated relationship with my own identity\, and playing with performance within real and constructed spaces.
