Synopsis of the Documentary Feature Film

À travers des dioramas et des photographies, Daniel Corbeil développe une narration montrant comment, en 2035, une communauté insulaire s'adapte aux changements accélérés du territoire causés par les perturbations climatiques. L'élévation rapide et permanente du niveau de l'eau représente une menace urgente qui nécessite une reconfiguration radicale et ingénieuse des habitations.

La transformation de la matière occupe une place importante dans l'œuvre sculpturale d'Ingrid Syage Tremblay, en particulier la transformation qui se produit par le contact de la main. Avec la taille directe, la forme émerge en retirant de la matière. Dans le travail textile, une structure solide prend forme à mesure que les fils s'entrelacent. Ce sont deux processus par lesquels la forme se façonne au contact du vide.

Starting from his own perspective and personal history, Roberto Santaguida engages himself in a new approach that provoke inquiry into the construction of identity as he creates a pilgrimage to his past.
