Oya’wih means “it tastes good” in the Wendat language.

La Galerie B-312 est très heureuse d’annoncer son nouveau projet de Résidences croisées Montréal + Tunis. S’échelonnant sur trois ans, ces résidences de ressourcement et de recherche favoriseront des échanges entre les communautés artistiques. Chaque année, deux artistes, l’un de Montréal, l’autre de Tunis, auront l’occasion de découvrir, à même une résidence d’un mois, la communauté artistique de chacune des deux villes. Une occasion unique de saisir, depuis une expérience in situ, une sensibilité, une culture, une manière de penser et de pratiquer l’art.

While photography is the essence of Alexis Gros-Louis' practice, he combines photographic techniques with a variety of media. These combinations, considered paratextual, aim to examine the substance of images as well as the histories and exchanges between objects, space and viewer. Alexis Gros-Louis highlights the complex relationships between the photographed objects, the space in which they are situated, and the viewer who interacts with the work. The artist is interested in notions of identity and belonging, and the normative systems of dominant cultures.

Victor Arroyo works at the intersections of cinema and contemporary art. His films are inspired by various modes of listening and seeing, the result of long periods of observation, documentation and archiving.

Each act of the trilogy is an exploration of trauma and marginalized histories. At Galerie B-312, he presents Act 1, Act of Mourning.
