Eva Cvijanović is an animator and filmmaker focused on the storytelling potential of environments, character and the dialogs that they create. Since graduating from Concordia University, she had produced and directed two independent film (Seasick, 2013 and Once Upon a Many Time, 2010) and was part of the NFB’s Hothouse program (The Kiss, 2011). Drawn to the immersive power of the tangible, Eva works with felted wool, watercolour and pastels while being equally fluent in digital media.

Native to Victoria, British-Colombia, Allison Moore studied interdisciplinary art and video at Concordia University where she received in 2005 a Bachelor’s degree with honours in Fine Arts. Active in the artistic community in Canada and abroad for the past ten years, she has participated in numerous exhibitions, residencies, workshops and events. Her work explores in a playful and systemic manner the fascinating universe of the dematerialization and the decontextualization of the image and the body as much on a conceptual level than on a technological one.
