In 2016, Émilie founded Indigenous Contemporary Scene (ICS), a critical and artistic manifestation of live-arts by indigenous artists. Its last edition took place in Montreal, from June 1 to 9, 2017. Émilie’s heritage is Anishnaabe and French, and she lives in Montreal.

Sarah has been a guest artist in Halifax and back in Vancouver with The Holy Body Tattoo and Joe Ink and in Montreal with George Stamos and Louise Bédard Danse.
