Adam Basanta (b1985) lives and works in Montreal since 2010. Originally studying contemporary music composition, he has developed a broad, experimental, autodidactic artistic practice in mixed-media installations. Across various media and techniques, he investigates technology as a meeting point of concurrent, overlapping systems; a nexus of cultural, computational, biological, and economic forces. Since 2015, his works have been exhibited worldwide including the Musée des beaux-arts de Montréal (CAN), WRO Biennale (POL), Fotomuseum Winterthur (CH), Cite International des Arts – Paris (FRA), Arsenal Art Contemporain (CAN), Galerie Charlot (FRA), iMAL (BEL), National Art Centre Tokyo (JPN), V Moscow Biennale for Young Art (RUS), Serralves Museum (POR), Edith-Russ-Haus fur Mediakunst (GER), York Art Gallery (UK), and The Center for Contemporary Arts Santa Fe (USA). His work has been awarded in Canada (Prix Pierre Ayot 2019, Sobey Art Award Longlist 2018 and 2020) and internationally (Japan Media Arts Prize 2016, Aesthetica Art Prize 2017), and can be found in private and institutional collections.
Julie Tremble holds a master’s degree in film studies from the University of Montreal and a bachelor’s degree combining cinema and philosophy. Her work has been presented in Canada and internationally in art centers including: Dazibao, Galerie B-312, La Fonderie Darling (Montreal), The Factory (Iceland), Museum Ludwig (Budapest), STUDIOTELUS at the Grand Théâtre de Québec and VU (Quebec City), Galerie d’art Foreman and Sporobole (Sherbrooke), as well as at various festivals including the Mirage Festival (Lyon), Les Instants Vidéo (France), the Festival du nouveau cinéma, the International Festival of Films on Art (Montreal), and Images Festival (Toronto). She has also presented her work at multidisciplinary conferences: the biennial meeting of the International Society for the History, Philosophy and Social Studies of Biology (University of Toronto) and Origine de la vie, discours et représentation (Acfas, Université de Montréal). In 2013, she received the CALQ award for best work of art and experimentation at the Rendez-vous Québec Cinéma.
