Marie Samuel Levasseur pursues a multidisciplinary artistic practice that combines art and life, and develops a collaborative approach to creation through small talk<\/a>. She uses multiplicity and micro-narrative<\/a> to hinder the unspeakable, and to account for the plurality of identities in the expression of self-narratives linked to life’s defining experiences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For 10 years, she held various positions at the Mus\u00e9e d’art contemporain de Montr\u00e9al, then worked as curator and editor at the Centre for Arts and Social Innovation of the National Theatre School of Canada, where she participated in the development of laboratories and knowledge-sharing platforms aimed at well-being through creation. She is now a member of the duo Place Courage, alongside her practice. Place Courage works at the intersection of art, truth and justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A graduate of the Universit\u00e9 du Qu\u00e9bec \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al with a master’s degree in visual and media arts, she co-directs creative workshops in micro-publishing and zines. She completed a creative internship at the \u00c9cole europ\u00e9enne sup\u00e9rieure de l’image de Poitiers Angoul\u00eame (France); a creative seminar in film studies at the Universit\u00e9 de Montr\u00e9al; post-graduate studies in pedagogy, focusing on accessibility and ableism; and is currently pursuing a degree in Indigenous Studies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
