Jonathan Plante was born in 1976. He lives and works in Montreal. Through multidisciplinary installations he investigates the question of presence by exploring the different states of the image. His work is part of private and public collections, including that of the Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal.

Born in Trois-Rivières, David Dufresne-Denis studied science, theatre and scriptwriting before becoming interested in journalism and documentary film. The Kino movement enabled him to expand his knowledge of the field and travel to Europe where he deepened his cultural knowledge. After directing a documentary series for Urbania.ca (Profile Series), he returned to Belgium to direct a feature length intimist documentary about Brussels.

Born in Drummondville, Nathalie LeBlanc lives and works in Baie-Saint-Paul. Having earned a Bachelor of Visual and Media Arts degree from Université Laval, she participated in the group show En Prolongation in 2011, where she first presented her slide-based work. Since then, she has been exploring the luminosity and transparency of this photographic medium in order to make this outmoded process current through redirection, imitation and video integration.

Marie-Andrée Pellerin is a visual artist from Montreal, trained in art and architecture. Since 2010, her practice has involved much movement and research in varied contexts (Bucharest, Marseilles, Brussels, Cieplice, etc.), from which her projects have stemmed. Her artistic work, always influenced by the initial training in architecture, takes the form of video, installation and drawing.

Originally from the south of France, where she first worked in fashion and photography, Jenn Pocobene studied at the arts and crafts and millinery school in Lyon, France. In the summer or 2007, she moved to Montreal and became in charge of the design department of Harricana by Mariouche, where she worked for five years. Currently an independent fashion designer, she wishes to continue exploring her creative talent through video.
